Today after work I got home and had to hurry up and get packing! This evening we were going to be driving to go visit Matt's older brother and his family because it is our niece's 5th birthday today and she is having a birthday party tomorrow. So we were aiming to leave our house by about 5pm but we were able to get out the door around 4:30pm, go us! This however is during rush hour but it really wasn't too bad. We were on the road for about 2 hours and a half and then we arrived to their home. The kids were pretty excited to see us which is always great.
They were just finishing dinner so we grabbed a plate each too. After dinner it was time for the birthday girl to open her gifts. Of course she was excited about it.

| Super happy with the gift she got 3 princess ballerina barbies! |

| They were having so much fun! |
This morning we woke up early because we had a tee time at 8am. This is my second time golfing, my first time was in Mexico. So we had breakfast and out the door we went. Matt's parents were there so they watched the kids while Richard, Kunthea, Matt and I went golfing. We only did 9 holes and we did it in 2 hours which is the right amount of time to get 9 holes done. There were a few cheat times but that's ok it was only my second time golfing and we didn't want to hold up other people. Again Kunthea and I had a blast!
Once we got home it was time to get a few more things complete before the birthday party and lunch. Some more family members arrived before the party which was great. Then 2pm came and the kids started to come. There were only about 6 extra kids but man do they have a lot of energy. Here are some pictures of the party.

By the end of it I was pretty tired but that could have also been because I had just golfed in the morning. We left to go home after 5pm so we got home some what later then what either of us had wanted but it was really great to visit with family.
Sunday
This morning Matt had to go out super early to bring some consent forms for the youth weekend next week to the other congregations. He also got a call asking him to conduct service this morning when he really should have been the last person to have been asked. But he did it anyways. His service was really good I was proud of him.
After service we had some of the youth deacons come over for a BBQ. Just simple burgers and salad. It was nice to have them over.
