More Birthdays

We had the family that lives here over for a combined birthday celebration with hot dogs, grilled pork ribs, hamburgers, potato and macaroni salad, and corn.  And an ice cream cake for dessert.  

We had eight children as guests, and nine adults - a pretty big party for us!

It was a lot of fun, and since the weather was a little cooler, we enjoyed being on the deck.  

We all held Andrew, one at a time of course, and we sang 'happy birthday to you'.

Michael and Jessica's  actual birthday was yesterday, and Jackson will be six years old in a couple of weeks, but he will be off on vacation then.

So here are some photos of the party, plus I can never resist showing photos of the amazing peonies showing what they can do right now.  So I'm out there, mostly early in the morning, in my pj's, with a camera, the iPod, the smart phone, whatever takes a picture and I adore.
