Natalie Turns 28

We celebrated Natalie's 28th birthday twice. Once on her actual birthday; and second, when Julie, Sheldon, and Jace were in Las Vegas a week or so after the fact. Both times we enjoyed a family dinner. For the first party after dinner, we played pin-the-nose on the dog and musical chairs. The second party we wore our New Year's Eve hats and made noise with party horns. No one seemed to mind that the hats said Happy New Year's and not Happy Birthday. We gave Natalie a Kindle. She didn't decide she wanted one until the day before her actual birthday, so the purpose of the second party was to give her the gift once it arrived. Both parties were great fun. Dessert for the first go-around was brownies which is Natalie's favorite.  The second go-around we had cupcakes.  Although the little grandkids made a huge mess eating them, it was fun watching them enjoying dessert.  It's always nice to be together, and we'll accept any reason to party and be with our family.
