Birthday Weekend

This past weekend Dan and I headed to Michigan to spend time with my sister and her family. It was our nieces birthday on Sunday and we had a great weekend together. On Friday night we had fun hanging out and playing Doctor Mario on their Wii for a little while before heading to bed. On Saturday we got to relax and just enjoy the day. Dan went with Stephen to their church's Men's Breakfast and I got a chance to do play with the kids. Before lunch we went and saw some puppies that a family from their church had and Stephen's parents came and picked one out. In the afternoon we watched Tangled (which Dan had not seen yet) and after dinner we played games and watched a movie.

Sunday was Damaris's birthday, so after church my parent's and Stephen's family congregated for presents, cake, and ice cream. My sister did her first cake with fondant and I thought she did a really good job.

 Here are a couple of her presents, the first one is from my parents and then what Dan and I got for her.

 Before we left everyone was trying to get us to get a puppy too, which is not going to happen. I have lived too long with out pet's in the house and I don't want all the pet hair on our things. Puppies are cute but I will pass! Stephen also wanted my dad to drive his new old tractor he got fixed.

We ended the weekend by driving to Grand Rapids and having dinner with my parents. We went to Carrabba's which we love but there isn't one close to us.
