Nick’s Birthday: Episode 3

The Brandi clan all gathered in Moline to celebrate Eleanor and Nick’s birthday in a fun-packed weekend of bowling, pizza, and cake! It was an awesome weekend with family, and Mark and I even managed a coffee break with our friends, Josh Ford and Josh Schilb. Who knew the Quad Cities had such a hip coffee house? It was great to catch up with them and to enjoy a few kid-free hours—thanks again to Lonnie, Matt, and Kamra for holding down the front at home.

Saturday afternoon it was off to bowling! Nick was kind of slow to warm to the events, but Lainey was on fire and bowled a 108 (with bumpers and a ball ramp). After bowling we enjoyed pizza and cake back at the house. The two guests of honor were the absolute cutest blowing out their candles (or trying to—I swear they weren’t trick candles!) and then painting their faces with frosting. Nick was really hamming it up and loving the attention of making everyone laugh. Eleanor was giggling so hard she almost had tears. We all loved seeing these two having so much fun and are excited to watch them grow up together!


We already miss you all and are looking forward to the next time we can be together!
