Party Weekend...

So it has been several days since we have had something exciting to talk about. But we had quite the weekend full of busy days this last weekend. Started out friday night with house guests. Blayne, Molly, Kieran, Dusty and Julie stayed with us in preparation for Sue's Surprise, but not so surprised, party. Ed and I had pretty much done everything that needed to be done, so we pretty much just hung out and ate pizza, courtesy of Dusty and Julie from Chicago. Tasty!! Spoiled the nephew and watched a movie. Also played on the computer trying to put together Sue's birthday gift (digital picture frame), was quite the tedious task.

Saturday morning we were all up fairly early to put together last minute things for the party as well. Then it was off to Sue and Ed's to decorate and get food out and ready. After many balloons filled with helium and a few tables worth of appetizers and snacks, we were ready for guests to arrive. We had a great turn out, many family members, friends and co-workers came to celebrate Sue turning 50.


Turns out the party wasn't as much of a surprise as we thought. I told everyone that she would see the invite at Grandpa Dick's house, guess I shouldn't have sent the invite and just called him, oh well. I guess it is the thought that counts. After many rounds of lawn games, mingling, eating, and appropriate 50th gifts the party came to an end. I don't think we even ran out of beer, surprisingly.

Mrs. Sally Hummel got Sue prepared for the years ahead with a care package of womanly needs. Pictures attached.





Sunday in our household was full of relaxation, Packer game (with a victory), and preparing for work for myself that night. Ed caught up on some homework as we headed into the last week of September, where has the month gone, summer is over.
