M & E's Birthday Party

Since their birthday was on a Saturday this year, we actually had the
party the same day. Evan wanted a Toy Story theme and Miriam is all about
Kitties this years, so that is what we did for the theme. It was a nice
(if hot) day, and we were able to be outside. We had grilled hotdogs and
hamburgers, lots of sides, and, of course, cake and homemade ice cream.
There were lots of kids (and their parents) here and I think everyone
had a great time. I know Evan and Miriam did!  Evan got a big stable
for his birthday, and Miriam got a big doll house. They both also
received new (to them) big kid bikes from Momma and Daddy. Miriam LOVES
hers and cried when she had to come in the first night!  Evan got a Rex
(from Toy Story) from Grandpa George. And Miriam was SOOOO excited
about her Jessie doll (also from Toy Story) from Grandpa George.
