Birthday Party Mania

Weekends are always busy, so instead of preparing through the week I like to procrastinate all my work until the day of.  I knew Saturday was going to be busy, so I made an effort to not do anything on my list until Saturday came around... a denial that it was already going to be a long day.  Instead I went to the kids 2 year and 4 year check ups... both in the 15%... then to the Art City Days in Springville, which was fun but I should have planned in extra time for it.  A quick jaunt down to Spanish Fork to visit with Becca and her kids... loved it so much that I didn't get home on time, but it all worked out.

Saturday was fun and busy... got up early to go to Jer's Half-Marathon that he ran with his dad and our sister in law, Diane.  They all did amazingly!  Jer got a personal best and just enjoyed the whole race, Grandpa got 4th in his age group (which is awesome), and Diane did her first Half-Marathon ever without having time to prepare for it really... She did amazing!

Then on to the combined Bday party for Sam and Evelyn.  Sam wanted a Lego Star Wars birthday, and Evelyn just could care less...  as long as she got to blow out a candle and open presents that she knew was for her then she was good.

Lego Tower Race

Light Sabers

Then... out to do the books for my sister's business and see their progress on finishing their basement.

Now I'm tired, but what a fun party all around.  Thanks all for coming.
