Happy Birthday Uncle Kevin!

Yesterday was Uncle Kevin's birthday and we hosted a bunch of his friends and family here at our house to celebrate with him...the grand plan was to cook out and then build a fire in the pit, but as mother nature would have it, it was WAY too cold for that.  Who would have thought that May 22nd would boast a high of 55 degrees!  The weather in Utah is the craziest I've ever experienced!  But at least it didn't snow!

But we had a great time in spite of the cooler temps!  Cara and I tried to surprise Kevin by making some of his favorite dishes from Lancaster.  There was quite a spread of food from macaroni salad, to grilled corn on the cob to ribs, burgers and chicken.  And what birthday party would be complete without birthday cake!  I even made Jello shots for the adults!  What fun!

Riley enjoyed playing with his buddy Tristam all night while Kendall was the luckiest girl in the world.  ALL of her boyfriends were there:  Kevin, Tom, Bob and a new one...Cara's dad!  She also got her first experience with lip gloss.  Cathy taught her how to apply it and then later on she was caught breaking into Cathy's purse and putting on a second application!  What a mess she had all over her face!

I am so thankful that we got to celebrate Kevin's birthday in person this year.  We're hoping that there will be a few more celebrations before we are asked to move again.  What a wonderful evening with great friends!

Happy Birthday dear friend!  We love you!
