January Birthdays

... surprised by the number of January birthdays in my family now. Of course Zach's boys both have January birthdays. But it just hit me on Saturday night when we went to a Japanese steakhouse to celebrate birthdays from Chad's side of the family how many we have now.
Tommy (our brother in law), Julie (Chad's cousin), and John (Chad's uncle, Julie's dad) all have January b-days. We had a great time celebrating with family. The kids were all good too which always makes for an enjoyable experience. Ash and Shep put on quite an eating display while Hunter wasn't feeling great (the cold continues to run through our family).
Here are some pictures.

The boys watch in amazement during the cooking.

Shepherd just couldn't understand why were not eating right when we sat down.

I managed to catch everyone with their eyes shut except for Julie. Actually I would think they were praying if it wasn't for Julie on her phone.

Great Aunt Joan with the boys and cousin Charlee.

We are truly blessed to be so close to our family.
