Family Weekend

Sara had a baby shower this weekend and we had a some family in town. John & Bev helped with a bunch of yardwork on Sunday which was great! Then we had Sara's aunt Deborah, cousin Jason and his wife Tara and their son Nathan over for a barbecue (our house is still not ready for a mobile one-year-old, that's for sure!).

Here is a picture from our Sunday dinner of grilled hamburgers & brats. Miraculously, the food was finished just as the Celtics/Cavs game ended.

On Sunday, while doing some yardwork I saw a cardinal that just needed his picture taken:
