Yesterday was Pappy's birthday, so we packed up the boys and headed over to Grammy and Pappy's for the evening. There was lots of food and drinks, cakes and (letter) candles and ice cream, and even a few presents.
The boys didn't eat much outside of bread and crackers, but what else is new. Connor put away quite a bit of spaghetti but passed on the chicken basil pasta. The boys all dug into the vanilla bean ice cream at the end. They weren't so much on the carrot cake, an adult favorite but not a hit with the under six crowd. Or Mommy for that matter. See, they get their food issues from me.
The boys spent plenty of time playing with the toys Grammy keeps over there for them and also playing out in the backyard. Grammy and Uncle Luke even had some little fireworks for Connor to play with (the ones that snap when you throw them down on the concrete). He had fun, even if they didn't last long because he kept taking handfuls and throwing them all together.
A good way to spend the evening, and hopefully a fun birthday for Pappy!
