Memorial Day Weekend

We had a fun filled Memorial Day weekend filled with family and friends. We spent Sunday hanging out with Josie. In the evening we planned to have Ken and Jessica over for dinner; and Maria and RJ were also in town after spending the beginning of the weekend in Fredricksburg for their two year anniversary. Since we were already planning to have four people over for dinner, we went ahead and invited Emily and Michael over too, then we got a phone call from Al letting us know that she and Colt were going to be in town too on Sunday night. Steven prepared a very gourmet dinner for the ten of us. We started off with a tomato tart and arugala and raddichio salad. The main course was rib eye steak with orzo pasta, grilled vegetables and chipotle shrimp and corn for the sides. For dessert, Steven made a very festive berry pie. All I can say is yum. I regret not listening to all of the registry guidelines though, we didn't have enough matching silverware and glasses! For some reason, I thought that two sets of four would be enough. I didn't think that we'd need more than that! Oh well, despite the unmatching silverware, dinner turned out wonderfully.

A good portion of the night was spent alternating playing with Ryan and the wii. I gotta say that the wii is pretty addicting. Ryan was really good on Sunday with everyone around. He got a little bit fussy, which was totally understandable given all of the people and commotion going on. I think that it really wore him out though because on Monday, he slept from 10ish to almost 3 in the afternoon!
