Birthdays and Pork

Yesterday (after Lauren's baptism) we all went to Daddy Steve and Namaw's house for a lunch celebrating Lauren & Katelyn's birthdays.  Julie had asked Mike to smoke some pork for the party and we were all excited to eat pulled pork!  Ann "helped" Mike get the pork ready for lunch (I think she was actually standing there so she could sneak a few bites when Mike wasn't looking.  I don't blame her!  It smelled so good!)

Daddy Steve and Namaw got a new "kid" table that will seat at least 6 kids.  Even Bella is sitting at the kid table now!

That means that the adults were actually able to converse without too many interruptions from the little ones!

After lunch (and presents & cake), all the kids headed outside to play. 

Some of the adults sat under the shade of the trees and talked while the kids played. 

Brody & Collin found some frogs and put them in a big cup to observe them.

Barrett decided that he wanted to watch the sky as he was driving the 4-wheeler.  I'm not sure that's the safest way to drive a vehicle?!
