We had three birthdays this weekend! The first was Jim’s. He took the day off, which was great for him. We had yummy strawberry waffles and sausage for breakfast and then he opened his present from me with a little help from JT.
Jim’s birthday wish is always to spend the day on the lake, and this year the weather cooperated. We had lunch with Jim’s parents and the kids in the boat.

Then Jim’s parents took the kids back to their house for naps and Jim and I had the boat to ourselves for several hours. We read, napped, skiied, and relaxed without thinking about diapers, snacks, or toys. We had a fabulous birthday dinner at Jim’s parents’ house and spent the night at my parents’ house. In the morning, my parents watched the kids and Jim and I had boat date number two. The weather was gorgeous!

Then Sunday afternoon we went to another birthday party for our friends’ daughter Madison, who turned one.

Haley is a little ticklish.
We went home tired and got up Monday morning for birthday party number three… Gracelyn turning three! It was at the bouncy house near our house, so we got to sleep in and relax before heading over for jumping, pizza, and an ice cream princess cake. It was Haley’s first time in a bouncy house, and she wasn’t too impressed. Maybe next time.
