We started Carl's birthday celebration by going out to eat at Shogun. Evan LOVED watching the chef prepare the food.(He just at macaroni and cheese though!) He especially liked the onion volcano and how the chef caught items in his hat. We were happy that Aunt Rachel, Uncle Teddy, Caroline, Bonnie Mom and Grandpa could join us for a fun evening!
On Carl's birthday, he played a round of golf with Uncle Teddy. (He still has his cast, so he played on one leg!) The rest of the day was pretty calm, but we did enjoy baking special cupcakes in ice cream cones. (I think Evan ate 3 or 4 that night!)
Carl really wanted his birthday present to be for us to do The Color Run, so on Sunday, Carl, Evan and I headed downtown for the race. Carl was pretty impressive and completed the race on crutches. Evan and I raced along side of him. Evan really liked getting the colors on him, but wanted to be carried a great deal of the race. Everyone had fun and we hope to do the race again next year with Preston and WITHOUT crutches and a cast.
We celebrated Carl's birthday and my Dad's birthday with my side of the family on Thursday. Since mom recently had hip surgery, we all went had a relaxing night at Mom and Dad's house and had pizza and carrot cake. The kids had a ball playing and running around together. (Evan was in heaven when Granddaddy played "The Deer Game" with him!)
We had fun taking some pictures before we left for the restaurant. I think the pictures are super sweet. (Evan and Daddy have been having fun taking silly pictures lately!)
Dinner was tons of fun. Evan had a smile on his face the whole time!
Our chef was lots of fun!

I tried to take a picture of Bonnie Mom and Grandpa with all of the grandchildren, but it did not turn out. =(
I had to take a picture with the birthday boy too!
"Happy Birthday Daddy!"
"YUMMY!"

Here are a few pictures from Carl and Granddaddy's birthday celebration.
Emily was Carl's buddy ALL night long. It was so cute!
Granddaddy got some time to hold Preston. Grammy usually won't let him go! =)

Happy Birthday Dad/Granddaddy!
I tried really hard to get a picture of all of the grandchildren, but that proved to be VERY unsuccessful, even with some bribing! Oh well!
