Happy Anniversary Jeannie and Tim!

Despite me having to work most of the weekend, we took a whirlwind trip up to the Twin Cities for a few hours on Saturday night to attend the surprise party for Jeannie and Tim's 25th anniversary! They were definitely surprised and it was a great party.

Here is the happy couple...
 
Feeding each other cake.
 Lots of family and friends came from afar.
All 5 siblings in the Ament family (my mom's side) were there. 
 
It was also Jeannie's birthday this weekend (Aug 3) and Unlce Hal's birthday is the same day! Our family is full of birthday buddies.
 
Elizabeth and Becca did a great job arranging the surprise for their parents!
Michelle and Brian came for the party too.

Austin had a blast and did really pretty well given the crowd of people and the fun and excitement of playing with the other kids and jumping on the trampoline.


Here he is playing basketball with Christopher and Hap.

Between, Nanny, Grandpa, and I, Austin managed to get a LOT of cake and brownies.
He also figured out how to drink a bottle of water on his own! Way to go little man!


When it started getting late, we got Austin changed into his jammies, brushed his teeth and said our goodbyes. We got in the car at about 9:30pm, but Austin was riled up from all the activity, so he didn't fall asleep until about 10:20. When I got him out of the car, he didn't even flinch he was so tired! He was out cold on my shoulder and I just transferred him right to his crib and he slept like a rock! He took a 3 hour nap the next day to catch up. Then it was back to work for me on Sunday. I need a day off! Luckily, I have this upcoming weekend off and we plan on heading up to the Twin Cities for the weekend for a family game of dominoes and a trip to the Children's Museum with Austin and Alexis.
