This past weekend, there were two birthdays in our family. First, we celebrated my grandma’s 90th birthday with a family reunion. It was so fun to see cousins who I haven’t seen in ages, and meet their children and spouses, and be all together again. We missed only two cousins (my brother, and one other) so it was pretty successful considering we have family living in eight states.

On Sunday, we celebrated my mom’s birthday. We went out to Chinese food, a favorite for my mom, the kids, and me.
Then we opened gifts and had cake and ice cream at my parents’ house. One of my mom’s gifts was a new game, Wits & Wagers Family Edition. We played before dessert and it was a lot of fun! Preston and Haley were a team, and they won!

| Guess who’s happy about winning? First prize: first one to get cake. |
