I love a Birthday Party




Richmond City celebrated it's 150th birthday today. To celebrate city council invited all of the residents to a barbecue dinner. A local farmer donated corn from his crop and I am sure someone in Richmond donated their steer. It is amazing that Richmond can feed the entire city. I am really liking this small town stuff.


The city rented big blow up bouncers and slides. Claire was a maniac. I couldn't get her off of it. She LOVED it. We came home to find a big hole in her pants. Good thing she had her diaper as extra padding.

Corn on the cob is the best and homecooked food is even better. Happy Birthday Richmond! Claire coming down the slide is so funny, her poor pants.

What a fun celebration. Bruce would love it there - I think I would too. If we ever lived back in Utah I think we could call Richmond home. Love your new family photo. You have such a sweet little family.
