Yesterday was another great day at the cabin....birthday party got in full swing before noon....kids had a great time with silly string, the pinata didn't last long, and Kennedy got great gifts to open (all her favorite craft stuff along with clothes and money) and it was capped off around 3 p.m. with the pulled pork Jimbo had leftover from Jack's party. It was just as good....it not better....but we'll be eating that for another couple of days....but we won't mind.
Kathleen and Gary showed up just in time for food, but they had just eaten, so they had to watch us eat. Later they both had pulled pork as we all were snacking on the fly. But the big deal was the Pig Tournament that Gary started last year and the kids were waiting to play. They had a sheet with all the brackets on it for a double elimination tournament that Kennedy made, and Wil managed to pull off the win for the second time. Don't know how he's so lucky.
Later they all played another game that Kathleen brought....Dixit...a fun game that the kids really liked. Kathleen, Gary and I played some Cut Throat which Gary and I tied the first time around and he beat me by one point the second time. Then Tom decided to play Spades with us, and we cut for partners and Tom and Gary ended up beating us twice.
Tom, Kennedy and Emily's friend Maddy all left at 5 a.m. heading back to Naperville, the rest of the family gets to stay a little longer. Bill and Kim and family left around 8 last night and I think the Stalboerger's leave later this afternoon. So it is thinning out, and we await more to come!
