birthday weekend

       Last Friday was a special day, C's 25th birthday! His parents actually flew in from Utah to spend the weekend with us. It was so nice. They got here Friday morning, and we went to campus where C showed us around and what building his program is in. We went to a yummy sandwich place for lunch. Then we came home and let A take a nap before we did anything else! Then afterwards we ran to the mall for a bit because they wanted to get C something for his bday. He got some sweet basketball shoes (because he's been playing on campus a little bit). We also got some cute clothes for A at Old Navy.. I love that store! Oh and they bought me a gift for C's bday lol. Aren't they sweet?? After that we met C's cousin and his wife for dinner at this restaurant we decided to try called Old Chicago. Oh my goodness, it was soo delicious! I got a chicken bacon alfredo pizza, and it was amazing. Anyway, afterwards we went over to C's cousin's house, and we hung out with them and their 5 kids. It was fun, a little rowdy, but that's to be expected with 5 kids! When we got home we put A down for bed. then C opened his cards and his present from me. It was a few shirts because he's been asking for some nice ones for working out and playing bball. Not the most exciting, but it's what he wanted! We also had his birthday cake that I made, which was a yummy brownie, oreo, pudding, cream cheese layered cake. It was pretty good, I must say. He always asks for something like that for his birthday- the chocolate king himself.
       So the next day was Saturday, and C and his dad went golfing in the morning (though it was super cold), while his mom and I went shopping! We can't resist buying baby girl clothes; they are so cute! Afterwards we hung out at our place for a while and let A take a nap. Then we went to this orchard and pumpkin patch place. It must be the place to be; it was jam-packed. It was a really cute place to go though. Then for dinner we went to TGI Fridays. On Sunday we went to church, came home and had lunch, relaxed and visited for a bit, then C's parents had to get going to catch their flight. Oh actually before they left we skyped with C's brother and new wife, and they told us they are expecting! We were all shocked but obviously super happy for them. We are so excited for A to have her first cousin on the Bednar side! Yay! Overall it was a fantastic weekend. The best times are always with family. We always look forward to when we get to spend time with our families. Here are some pics from the fun weekend
