Then, last wednesday was my friend Tara's birthday. We met Tara and Keirsten at the park so that the girls could play, eat cupcakes and celebrate.

Last friday my mom had off work for the holiday weekend so she came down to our house to hang out. Friday afternoon Jayda painted Jacob's picture frames for his birthday and friday night Jacob, Oma and Jayda went swimming at the pool.

On the 4th of July we headed to huntsville to hangout with family. We had fun visiting with everyone and went to get Dairy Queen ice cream that afternoon, yummy! Saturday evening everyone came over and we grilled hotdogs and hamburgers and went to watch the fireworks show in Huntsville.

On sunday we had a birthday party for Jacob and asked all of our family to come over. We grilled shrimp and chicken and made pasta with alfredo sauce and corn on the cob. Jacob's favorite meal is shrimp fettucine alfredo, so I thought it would be fun to make that for him. We also made his 3 favorite cakes: angel food cake, lemon cake, and cookie cake. Everyhthing turned out so good even though it took a bit longer to make everything than we'd anticipated. Thanks to everyone that helped with all of the cooking! Needless to say, he got a little spoiled for his birthday. He also got a bunch of neat gifts from everyone so that was really cool!

On monday, July 6th, which was Jacob's real birthday Jayda and I met him for dinner at Gringos. The food was soooo good. We'd never been there before, but had heard it was good. I would definitely recommend it. They even had an ice cream machine, that's always a big plus in my books!
