Matty's Birthday Barbecue 3/21/09










































Tony works every other weekend and in some months, his Reserve weekend coincides with his weekends off. This happened in March so we had to push Matty's bday party back almost a month past his actual birthday. This was actually a blessing since he ended up with RSV on his actual birthday and was sick for over a week (seriously, I had to nebulize him 3-4 times a day). It was a beautiful day and we reserved the picnic area at a nearby park and had family and close friends join us for a celebration. Grandma and Grandpa Palmer, Grandpa San Nicolas, Sandy and Eric Jensen, Mike Jensen, The Castro Family, The Knauf Family, Auntie Claire, Auntie Katrina and Kylie, Great-Uncle Larry, I hope I'm not leaving anyone out.... Oh yeah, the Eberts came late in the day but at least everybody got to see Zoey for about an hour. Auntie Sylvia and Uncle Rob couldn't make it because Christopher had a baseball game but they had a special dinner for the Mattman later in the week.
Matty had a fun time playing on the playground and just being the center of attention. He made a mess of his cake and got lots of cool presents. Mommy was about 4-6 weeks pregnant and hadn't told anybody yet so she was tired when the day was done.
