Fun and tired

We had a nice day today celebrating Haven. The day began early as usual and then the kids were fed. Haven was given her presents from us and she was thrilled. We then tried to get a few things in order and waited for Daddy to get home so he could say hello to the birthday girl (and all the others as well). Then we hit the road to my sister's house about an hour and a half away since my parents were there visiting for my niece's recital. The kids were so excited to see their cousins, and usually we have something to do, somewhere to go or it is a holiday, but today they were able to just play and enjoy each other's company. We made it up there, enjoyed a nice lunch of burgers, hot dogs, watermelon, veggies and chips. The kids played inside, then out, then in, etc and all seemed to have a ton of fun. We then had cake, they played more, and then we headed out for the ride home. Being that they were all up late last night and were so busy today, I am hoping they sleep well. Tomorrow we WILL make the jam and we also need to do a CSA run...and that is all we are doing!
