The highlight of birthdays at our house is that the birthday person gets the day off of school. Josiah's day was filled with playing chess with whoever would play with him...
...and playing Super Smash Bros when everyone else was finished with school. I feel like Chess and Super Smash Bros on on the extreme spectrums of game types. The kids really did have fun playing together.
Ramen for supper and chocolate covered strawberries was the request for supper.
Aliza's entire goal for her birthday was to stay in her pajamas and do nothing. From my perspective, it appeared to be a successful day for her. When Grandad invited her to get Island Creamery with him, she requested that he bring it to her. He did! And they sat at the table, the 2 of them, and had a lovely little time together.
I made steak, shrimp and chicken hibachi and Jeremy brought home sushi for Aliza's birthday supper. And then It was a brownie ice cream pie for dessert.
Grandma and Grandpa have kept up the tradition of coming for birthday weekend--17 years now! I really don't think they have every had to miss one. Grandma and Grandad and some of the aunts/uncles/cousins that were available came over Saturday afternoon for ice cream cake. It was a nice enough day for the kids to play outside.
After church we ate at Arby's and then it was back to normal life. Jeremy's parents headed home and Aliza headed to theater practice for the afternoon.
