Birthday Weekend

For Kyle's birthday I had one surprise...His brother Jake and sister-in-law Audra were coming for the weekend. They were going to surprise him at the evening BBQ. Everyone had kept the secret for weeks. On Friday morning Troy, one of Kyle's brothers, stopped by and on the way out he flippantly said, "See you at 6, we'll bring Jake and Audi." Then he walked out the door. Kyle looked at me. I didn't know how to cover it up. I wasn't sure if Kyle heard him or if he connected the dots. Then Kyle smiled and I knew it was all over. Oh well, he was surprised, just not at the right time :)
Friday, Kyle's actual birthday he went to work in the morning. In the afternoon he came home, opened presents, finished installing the pantry, and relaxed. In the evening we had a BBQ for friends and family. The boys stayed up late playing poker and smoking cigars in the garage.

Saturday, the work began...On Friday our countertops and floors came in. The four brothers spent the majority of Saturday installing the countertops. The girls hung out planning vacation stuff and taking a walk. Saturday evening we all went to Outback and the boys went to play more poker while the girls watched a chick flick.

Oh, a real picture of Jake :)

Sunday we went to church, relaxed, and spent the evening with family.
