Dad's Day / Rachel's Birthday

I drove down to Poway on Father's Day to celebrate my amazing brother, Chad, father of 3.  We also celebrated Rachel's 5th birthday!!!  Here are the visuals for you:

Nana G.G. sent tap shoes to Ali and Sammy, because when she was 8 she got a pair of tap shoes that she just loved.  The girls loved theirs, too!

We had opened presents after we ate (which was a fabulous steak dinner, that Gina made.)  Then we at cake!

Nana G.G. had also sent crayons for the tub, which Rachel enjoyed that night in the bath.

I stayed the night.  We were going to go do something fun on Monday, Rachel's actual birthday, but she didn't feel so great (threw up several times) so we hung out at home and played with her cool zoo toy.
