Celebrating Another Year!

Carson turned TWO on the 18th of January! He was so excited for his train themed birthday party and told everyone who asked that he was "two." We invited mostly family and a few close friends. We enjoyed hot dogs and hamburgers while Carson was focused solely on the birthday cake.


So it goes.... Steve finally decided on something to do for his birthday. After weeks of deliberation, a last minute decision was made (with a little help from Kristi R). I sent out an evite as well as text message to invite friends to dinner and drinks at Bobby Salazars.

The responses came in slow. (Kristi R claims that in the city, everyone responds instantly!) Only very few RSVP'd that they were going to come. We showed up and to our first surprise, my brother Stephen had drove all the way from Oakdale to wish Steve a Happy Birthday in person. As the night went on, friends poured into the patio of the Mexican restaurant at Champlain and Perrin. Let's just say that I made reservations for 10-15 people and 26 showed up!!! Yes, you read that right. 26 people showed up to celebrate Steve's birthday.... last minute.... on a Thursday night!!

I just have to say that we have an amazing group of friends, an extremely diverse group, but amazing never the less!!

Happy Birthday Steve and Carson!! I love you both!!!
