It started with some Wii with the family, while waiting for some of the others to be done with work/studying etc. This is me after playing probably the strangest game on Wii Fit Plus, that involves being a flying chicken and flapping your arms... I was the only one who played it, and it was for everyone else to laugh apparently. I still had fun, cause it was funny.
We also played Carcassone. This was the beginning:
I think they let me win, although I won because I luckily got the very last tile and it played perfectly for me. This is the board after we finished.
It was loads of fun. We also played some Sorry Sliders, a few of us went for a walk to enjoy outside.
Once everyone got to the house, we were ready to go to dinner, to Ted's Montana Grill we went. This is the whole family, yes several them aren't technically related but they are family to us. :)
Dad and Eldest Daughter, aka Super Nurse:
Lil Sis aka Artist Extraordinare and Lil Sis' boyfriend/ our roommate
Having some fun with the complimentary reading glasses they brought to Dad before the food gets there:
This is me and my Kitchen Sink. Oh so good. I mean how can you go wrong with grilled mushrooms and onions, bacon, ham, cheese, fried egg all atop a B E A utiful bison patty. yummy. Oh and you can see I had the broccoli instead of the fries, gotta be a little healthy. :)
A little healthy because I knew what was coming next. Free Cookie and Ice cream dessert! Pictured here is a snickerdoodle with vanilla ice cream
Then we went home and had real dessert. My awesome wife, remember me telling about her? She made from scratch a totally delicious Oreo Cheesecake for my BDay. Here it is in the oven:
About to cut into the goodness.
After that we still had some daylight so we played a little KanJam, which you should all know about now.
Lindsey planned all of it and took such good care of me. She really made it such a wonderful day and I totally enjoyed it. She is awesome and has mad cheesecake making skills.

Cool bday Brian. Where did you hear of Kan Jam? A friend of mine introduced me to it recently and it's a lot of fun. I think we'll be bringing it to GT tailgating this fall. Also, never heard of Carcassone but I'll check it out and maybe add them to a new website I'm building for game recommendations (let me know if you want the link. it's still being developed).
To be honest I am not sure where I found out about KanJam, might have been from your blog... Carcassone is pretty fun, and relatively easy to learn and play. I would recommend it. Also if you never have played Settlers of Catan it is a great game, plus has lots of expansion packs too.
