Rhys' b-day was pretty mellow and low key for the most part. my cousin erica came over with her two boys (1 year and almost 4) all the way from tracy (3 - 3 1/2 hours away) and spent the day with us which was wonderful. she dropped off her MIL and aunt-in-law at the nugget (aunt janet loves her keno!). we played and played with the kids, and didn't get to talk nearly as much as we wanted to...kids and all, you know. it was really good to see her. rhys opened some really groovy presents and talked to a few friends as well as papa and gramma and a little later uncle matt called too. he was happy it was finally "rhysie day" as he called it. we went to black rock pizza for dinner *yummmm!* and he had italian wedding cake for his b-day cake. erica and the boys picked up her MIL and AIL and on they went to tahoe where she was meeting her DH and FIL. anyway, we'll celebrate rhys a bit better on the sunday when my sister and her crew are here as well. crazy to think that he's three. and irene is 6 1/2. yeesh.
