Our Brother in Law, Steve, turned 40 last week. We have entered a new era of now having friends in their 40's and attending 40th birthday parties! A few years back we went to a 40th birthday party of one of Mark's fraternity brothers, now Steve is our second! Well actually 4th I guess...Mark's sister and brother are both over 40! Anyway...enough worrying about being 40. I have a few more years...Mark, not so much. He will be 40 next summer!
My sister, Jen, planned a fun event at a local BBQ restaurant. After the KU WIN we headed down to the party. We were a few minutes late, but no big deal. Everyone was mingling and drinking and having fun.
Addison colored with Gramps while waiting for her food.
Lauren hung out with Nana for a little while.
Mark asked Steve if he could have some "magic jelly beans." Which cracks me up since Mark is holding Sophie asking for Viagra jelly beans! Sophie is such a great baby. She never cries. She lets everyone hold her and she is always happy. She is almost 7 months old now.
We were at the restaurant for almost 2 1/2 hours. The girls did really good entertaining themselves for the most part. They colored, ate, played with our I-phones (those things are amazing for the kids) played with the ice cubes in the cups, and climbed under the tables. They were good for a while and then they began squealing in excitement. You know, that high pitched squeal that girls do when they are excited...well if you have girls and more than one then you know. That was our cue to leave. The party was over! Besides, it was past bedtime at that point!
It was a fun night, especially after the KU win...did I mention that already?
