This past weekend, my sister Peggy and her family came to see our new house. Peggy and the kids, Meghan and Andrew, had been at our mom's for a week, and Uncle Terry flew in for the weekend. We had a great time - had some fun meals, dealt with Sarah who had a raging stomach virus all over Mommy (twice), played miniature golf, and celebrated Andrew's 5th birthday! I have to share my sister's family's rules about birthdays - you get to choose all your meals that day. So, the first words out of Andrew's mouth when I saw him on Thursday was that he was going to be 5 in two days, and what he was going to have to eat on Saturday. Here's his menu - breakfast - chocolate chip pancakes, lunch - a grilled cheese sandwich with his favorite fruit in a face shape on the sandwich (glad he told us what his favorite fruit was - I just happened to have it!), dinner - pizza. Oh, and his cake plate had to have his name on it. I just so happened to have some cake decorating writing gel, so we were able to solve that potential problem.
Sarah and Daddy at the horse races
Aunt Peggy and Meghan racing cars - if only you could have seen
how beat up their car was at the end of the race!
Meghan and Andrew playing Rapid River and rowing their hearts out

Getting ready to leave on Sunday - Sarah was still not 100%,
but trust me, she was much better!
