After playing croquet, everyone had worked up an appetite so we went in for dinner. And yes, here is proof that I can, and do, cook!
After dinner, Chad blew out his candles on a version of Millionaire Pie Amanda had made for him.
Finally, Chad got to open his gift.
The cats also enjoyed Chad's birthday!
We played guys against girls and were pretty evenly matched. We had a great time celebrating Chad's birthday with him and were glad we left the valley early so we could be here for it!
