You would think after three straight days of celebrations we would be partied out but Sunday was our good friends' daughter's first birthday. Laura did a great job and had a ball pit, bubble machine, and favors for all of the kids. She also told me ahead of time what food she was going to be serving so I could make something similar for Reed. When I told Reed we were going to a party for Eden he insisted on wearing a bow tie. He also was pretty excited that his swim teacher, Morgan, was going to be there. As we were getting ready to leave Eden crawled up to Kieran's car seat and they held hands for a while, it was adorable.

We left the party just in time for naps, but instead of heading home we made the hour long drive to Three Rivers where our friend Phil and his family are vacationing for the week. I had hoped that both kids would sleep the entire trip but Kieran took about 30 minutes to fall asleep and Reed only fell asleep for the last ten or so. Shannon, Kevin, and Clara did the exact same thing we did but their good little traveler slept the entire time. Right after we got there Reed managed to drop a croquet stick down a hole in the deck and was pretty upset over the loss. He calmed down when Shannon read him and Clara books in Spanish for a bit. Other highlights included all the kids acorn hunting, fishing in the ice chests for ice cubes, and skinny dipping. As for the adults, we enjoyed some delicious food, nice wine, and a few adult conversations sprinkled in the chaos. At the end of the night we walked down to the river. Kieran was pretty tired and a little fussy and Jon started pulling his leg up and down in the air. The Bug thought that was the funniest thing ever and would dissolve into laughter every time Dad did it to him.
