The Baker's: Full Weeekend

This past weekend was full of happenings. Our niece Megan, turned 21 and held a nice lunch which we attended, and partied thru the night, which we did not. The family all gathered at Texas Land and Cattle on the riverwalk, now co-managed by John E (crystal's brother). We enjoyed a tasty meal (steak and wedge salad for me) and the girls were well behaved throughout the majority of the time, thanks to Gayle's (megans mom) supply of coloring books and toys.

Shortly after lunch we headed south of town and braved the rain, to watch Jason (crystal's friend from college as well as our former kickball teammate and skiing buddy) defeat San Antonio in his regional rugby match. Later in the evening we joined Jason and his wife Jen for dinner later that evening and enjoyed some great sushi at Sushi Zushi.

good win........now go shower

The following morning,we awoke early in preparation of Kendra's' official 2nd birthday party. Got the house cleaned and set, fired up the grill and inflated the bounce castle that was loaned to us by Mandy. It was a small get together with just family in attendance but that was still enough to fill the house and backyard. We ate well, played and had an overall enjoyable afternoon. Kendra sure enjoyed playing with her cousins and opening her gifts, and Kayla is more excited about next month...when we do it all again for her birthday.
