TWO WORDS: 1st word: mozzarella, cheddar {cheese}; 2nd word: everyone gets one once a year with their name on it + ppl eat it {cake}....CHEESECAKE?!?!

this weekend, my brother, sister, her husband + children, and our father all came to visit the hubby + i. we had a really great time eating, fellowshipping with one another, playing games, etc.

for dinner, we had parmesan tilapia, steamed green beans, garlic mashed potatoes, and biscuits. everyone said dinner was really great *turning around so you can pat me on my back*, hehehe; however, i cannot take credit for the biscuits...they were AWESOME!!! my sister + brother introduced the hubby + i to a new brand {can't remember what it's called...will update the post later}.

in celebration of my niece, laikyn's, birthday we had cheesecake {her favorite}. my brother, jt, truly outdid himself with the strawberry topping that he made...it was truly delicious. the best part of it all was that laikyn had no idea that we were gonna surprise her...here are a few pics...

 

after we finished eating dinner + devouring the birthday cheesecake, we played mad gab + then taboo....it was a whole lot of fun! i was very impressed with how well my niece + nephew grasped taboo...they did a really great job of coming up with their own clues! 


we're looking forward to our next family weekend sometime at the end of january. we're truly blessed to be surrounded by the love + support of our family + friends!!!
