MIL's Birthday Weekend

This was a very busy weekend for us. My Mother-In-Law, MIL, Marianne Murphy had a birthday and we went up to celebrate with her. We had three different birthday dinners with her. Nathan came for two of the dinners and Richard, Katie, and Kirksey came too one night. Thursday night we had Birthday dinner at Red Lobster and Nathan introduced us to Jodie there. MIL's birthday gift from us was an Amazon Kindle. She was very excited. Friday, I went to see Richard and Katie's new house. Katie, Kirksey and I had lunch with Madelyn. Then Friday night, we had an impromptu get together with the family. Saturday, Matt and I went to Danielle's Surprise 30th Birthday party. Then Saturday night Matt grilled for his Mom. The steaks were excellent and we enjoyed our time together.

 So this was an action packed weekend!!!

Matt and his Mom had to work on Friday. 

So Madelyn, Katie, Kirksey and I had lunch.

 Madelyn and I were so happy to see one another.

Nathan loves his Grandma Marianne.

Chewey and Kirksey made friends.

Because it was so late, Nathan got us take out. 

Nathan is telling us about flying a plane! 

Nathan flew!!! Nathan and his buddy had to fly to Jackson and back to Southaven. Nathan taxied, took off, and flew the plane! He said the wind was too high for him to attempt landing so Boyce took over and landed the plane. Nathan was so excited. He wants his pilot's license. It was fun hearing the story.

It was so nice that we could all get together to have an impromptu dinner even though Richard and Matt had to work so late. It made the birthday weekend even more special.

It was a Happy 30th Birthday for Danielle.

We gave her a Giddy Up dress.

Waiting on the steaks!!

MIL's third birthday dinner....steaks, asparagus, potatoes.
MIL declared them the best steaks she ever had. 

Marianne Murphy is the best MIL that I could ask for.

 She deserves to be celebrated everyday not just at birthday time.

Matt and I love you so much!

Happy Birthday!
