Burkhardt Bunch: Five Years Already

Saturday started out gloomy with a little rain, but turned into some nice hot sunshine. There was tons of good food and seeing everyone again was great. There were plenty of activities outside for young and old. Nik played in a game of wiffle ball and had 2 homers, the only homers for his team. That's my man. :) The kids enjoyed blowing bubbles and playing with sidewalk chalk.

We left around 4pm and headed home to get ready for our evening out. We got to Get smart about a half hour early and there were barely any seats left in the theater. I guess since there was only one showing that evening we should have known better, but at least we got in. The food was good as always except for the fact that right at the end, Nik bumped the table and knocked my whole plate of food on my lap including my nice ketchup bowl for my fries. I gave him a very sweet look of "thanks alot." :) I still love you honey. After that we headed over to Club Soda, which we again should have made a reservation. It was packed out, but they managed to find us a seat.

I also want to say thank you to everyone who gave us cards, and also to my mom and dad who threw a little something extra inside. :)

Our kids had quite a ball without us though. Grandma and Grandpa Burkhardt watched them for us and had quite the night planned for them. First they went to Burger King with a 3 story play place. And then they went off to Sweeny Park. Next they came home and did a scavenger hunt of fun little items they had picked up at Meijers, and then they watched a movie. Quite the fun evening I would say. Carter woke up when we got home and he just went on and on and on about what all they did.
