On Friday night, we checked out the preview of the Art Car parade after dinner. We did not have a chance to go to the parade on Saturday so it was fun to see some of the cars while we had a chance.
Dinner Saturday included Chicken Souvlaki cooked on the grill. You may notice that the grill has been moved (from about where Jared is standing) and that we have more grass now.
Rachel enjoyed opening all of the gifts that everyone kindly brought for her
We all enjoyed the Souvlaki, pitas, spanikopita, tzatsiki and greek salad for dinner. Jared and Hope made baklava for dessert that was delicious!

After dinner, Rachel had more of her "cake" and was serenaded by the group.
Here is a movie version for your enjoyment...
Rachel seemed to really enjoy her "cake". She managed to eat the whole thing, even though we thought she was full from her dinner. The hat did not last the whole time - after the inital excitement of the "cake" wore off, she remembered the hat was there and removed it.
We had a fun time on Sunday at the Natural Science Museum - Rachel and I explored the exhibits while everyone else watched Hubble 3D. Then, we took a few pictures in the backyard before our guests had to head back home.
She did a great job on that cake! Well Done :) What a good mommy cutting it up in easy to grab pieces!
