Holiday weekend part 2

Friday with the help of my family, we cleaned up some stuff at our new house (more on that later).  The girls raked up sticks, branches and leaves, while the men ripped up the carpet in the entire house!  It took about 2 hours to get that all finished.  It's looking good!  

When we were done we came home to shower and change, then went right back out to my parents house to celebrate my sisters birthday.  We had BBQ chicken, potato salad, and corn on the cob.  It was the perfect meal on such a beautiful day.

After dinner Jenny opened her presents.  She got a cute jewelry box, popcorn jelly bellys (her favorite flavor) and a cute Pride and Predijuce book from us, a photo collage from Jake, money and skinny pop from my brother, and money from my parents.  I hope Jen had a good birthday even though she had to help us do yard work at the house.  Hopefully next year will be better!

She got 2 cakes! First was an angel food cake with custard, strawberries, blueberries, and cool whip
