Birthday Party Time

With the Florida grandparents in town for Thanksgiving and Uncle Steve’s family coming for a visit, we decided to have the boy’s second birthday party a week early again this year. The tradition we have begun is to have a small birthday celebration in December and a second, larger party in June for their half-year birthday. A family with two children born on different dates would hold two birthday parties per year, but twins share a single day, and our boys’ birthday falls close to Christmas. Our solution allows for two parties per year and the June half-year birthday falls when the weather permits outside activities. For this birthday dinner we chose the boys’ favorite food: barbeque mutton sandwiches, potato salad, baked beans, burgoo and fruit.
