The kids had a great time...they were so excited to see each other again after such a short time. They don't usually get to see each other more than a couple of times a year. Jake was a bit of a challenge, though... He was really going through a tough time with big crowds of people he doesn't know. So, he wanted me to hold him most of the time. And...when Jake wants something, he usually gets it! I am such a sucker with him! We made it, though, and had a wonderful trip!
Mitch LOVES Papa Jack (Gary's dad)! He helped Papa Jack cook...washing potatoes for him and helping him spice up the chicken to grill!
While Mitch was helping Papa Jack, Jake was playing on the steps. This is where he spent most of his time (when he was in my arms)...
Here are some pictures of the Birthday Girl and her kids...

But...the best part of the trip had to be the cake! After the party was over, and most of the cake had been eaten, the kids were "hovering" around the table, just dying to dig into the icing with their little fingers. Well, Gary, being Gary...told them to to "go for it"! They couldn't believe their luck...and honestly, neither could I! Gary even got Jake in on the action. Of course, that's something only a Dad would do...but it was so fun to watch them!
