Daddy and Sammi

Sammi, Sydni and Renee watching The Simpsons Movie (hilarious!)

Renee w/ Alex at her feet... Renee enjoyed feeding her cake and ice cream (hey, what's not to like about a baby who looks like a little bird waiting to be fed?)

Jerry w/ Alex, watching The Simpsons Movie. Unfortunately, we had to leave during the middle of it, it was getting late and Bec had to be at school the next day.

Pat cutting cake for everyone's birthdays (his, Wanda's and Melissas are all in May, plus they celebrated Mother's Day.) Wonder what Shabree is saying?

Jonathan and Melissa, who are expecting their first baby, she's 20 weeks along. I won't say the gender.

Jerry and Wanda

Shabree and Sammi (of course!)

Jonathan hanging Sydni upside down (he'll be a good dad!)

Renee and Jonathan swinging Sydni (they're brother and sister)

We had a GOOD time. Renee called me about 1:30, asking if we had plans for the afternoon. I said no, what's up? Well, did we want to come, Pat was going to bbq, and there'd be cake and ice cream for various May birthdays. YES! So we left a bit later than I wanted to, but we got there around 4 (I'd said we'd be there by 3... oops.) We chatted, munched on chips, and Pat grilled up some sirloin for me, and Jerry started with a T-bone, but actually ended up eating about 3 cuts of really good steak. Pat's old property was an acrage, so they had some cattle that they had butchered, and this was some of that... yum. They were none too happy about their new abode, but glad to be living closer to their son and dil who live down the road, and some friends live pretty close as well. They got a really good price on the house. Along with steak, there was some WONDERFUL corn (which I almost, gasp, liked better than the steak!), and watermelon which was the best I've had all year, and salad, which I skipped, oh, I almost forgot the potato, yukon golds... YUM!
After dinner, we all had cake and ice cream, and everyone opened their presents. Renee and I were feeding Alex cake and ice cream, which Alex was LOVING... she's going to be an ice cream fiend, lol. Pat got The Simpsons Movie for his birthday, plus a Nightmare Before Christmas towel that we envied a bit. We decided to watch The Simpsons, but after about 45 minutes, decided that we'd better get a move on... Alex was tired and cranky, and Bec had school in the morning.
At some point, probably earlier in the evening, Becca modelled her Grand Bethel (I believe that's what it's for!) formal dress. Grand Bethel is in the end of June, and we just figured out tonight that Syd can't go...and if Becca has summer school, she may not be able to go either! It's too bad too, because they spent the first half of their Sunday raising quite a bit of money at a pancake breakfast so they could go, plus Syd had baked cookies to sell at a bake sale. She's gotten REALLY good at baking chocolate chip cookies... they are SOOO yummy, to die for yummy. If she underbakes them JUST a bit, they are all gooey and yummy, but even at 10 minutes, they're REALLY good. Trust me on that one. YUM.
We had a good time... now I just have to scrap these pictures, and good luck on that one! LOL...
