more declan birthday pics... grandma nancy and grandpa lynn visited indy in early december (once michigan football season came to an ugly close) to help celebrate d's 2nd birthday. it was extra special b/c it was also grandpa lynn's birthday the weekend they came so declan was happy to share his elmo cake with him.

we love having company so we kind of went all out for declan and grandpa lynn's birthday dinner. appetizers, beef tenderloin, rice pilaf, corn casserole, green beans and birthday cake! it was delicious. i should have busted out my "good" china and silver for the occasion since we've only used it once, but i voted it might be a little over the top.
we also ventured downtown to the miniature train and christmas exhibit at the Indiana state museum. i forgot my camera so no mementos of that, but it was great for little ones, will definitely be an annual tradition for us! they also do a santa breakfast, but we got scoop from some fellow visitors there that day that the food was just ok and santa doesn't even show up at the breakfast, what a joke! good to know, we'll remember to skip the breakfast in years to come, maybe create our own downtown brunch tradition after the christmas train.
