A birthday, a birthday and a birthday

Our family recently got together to celebrate two family birthdays and as an added bonus we also celebrated the birthday of Mr. Barb the Evil Genius. Here are Nick and Naomi dishing out the ice cream cake I made for the birthdays. We were celebrating Naomi's 22nd birthday so she was our birthday girl for the day. The Evil Genius Barb is helping dish out the dessert. Melody if you are reading this, we are using the cat plates you gave me : )

Here are the birthday boys anticipating chowing down the cake. We celebrated Theo's 28th birthday and I'm not certain of the number for Mr. Evil Genius but it is the day after Theo's. Our dining room table was not big enough to handle all four families but we did manage to seat the adults there. My grandsons ate at the counter in the kitchen and the young ladies ate at a card table reminding me of family meals growing up. We children were always relegated to card tables in the kitchen.

The day was nice so Grandpa opened up the treehouse for the children to play in. Lily is missing from the picture -- don't know where she was when it was taken. This is the treehouse that Nick and his dad built as a math homeschool project. It won't be long before Nick's daughter will be playing in it!

    Funny about the card table. You know, the youngest "kid" in my hubby's extended family is now 34, and us "kids" STILL end up at the card table in the living room.

    Looks like they are having a ball in the tree house--that was a very worthwhile math project!
