Grandpa and Grandma Steiner come to visit and late birthday party for 'Si

Dan's parents flew in from Maryland on Wednesday late afternoon to spend a few days here because there was a family friends' wedding on Friday evening that we were all going to.  So Thursday evening we had Nolan, Jill, Mike and his parents over for a bbq to celebrate a late birthday party for 'Siah since they weren't able to make it in August.  
Of course it was a Star Wars birthday again...Grandma and Grandpa took the boys to the Party store to get some Star War things for the party while Mommy stayed back and worked on the dinner...Grandma got creative and got some sticker and put them on toothpicks .  Josiah of course LOVED it.  We were going to get a Darth Vader cake at Freddy's but they were out.  

They also found these cool Darth Vader masks at the store...the boys' LOVED them!  

Outside waiting for Uncle Mike and Uncle Nolan to arrive.  Josiah and Micah using their cool Star Wars cups.

Two pretty ladies...Auntie Jill and Grandma!

Uncle Mike...he's very protective of his little neice! :)  

Uncle Nolan picking on Micah!  They are buds that's for sure!  

Present time...of course it was all Star Wars!  Auntie Jill and Uncle Nolan had found a very fun Star Wars card...when you open it up it plays the Darth Vader song...Josiah LOVED it...can you tell by his face.  We have video footage of the boys singing the song that Dan will put on later...it's pretty cute!  I think 'Siah's comment when he opened it..."That's so Cool!"


Grandpa and Grandma had found a neat Yoda puppet on Ebay.  He also received two Star Wars shirts from them...which I am sure he will try wearing EVERYDAY if he can.  I did get them off of him to wash them yesterday!  :0)  I told him he didn't want to stink!  I hope this is just a phase! ;)


Blowing all 4 candles out...of course Micah man had to help.  I had got some trick candles...since they seem to love blowing out the candles...but they were lame and didn't even relight really.  Oh well!

Cambria in her cute cheerleader's uniform they got for her at the Navy store.  I think she'll be a cheerleader for Halloween.  Dan showing off his and CAmi's balancing skills.  She was loving it!  Me not so much...:0)  

We had a wonderful evening and lots of yummy food!  It was great!  And fun to have them everybody here...we probably won't see Grandpa and Grandma again till Christmas!
