Happy Birthday Kaia!

A literal boat load of Terry's gathered together and crossed over the Long Island Sound. After arriving and picking our jaws up off the snowy grass, we entered the Reinmund's new place of residence and gave ourselves a tour. Finished basement, five bedrooms, 6 bathrooms (if I counted right), and a finished attic, not too shabby if you like that Daddy Warbucks type of living establishment.

Kaia was full of smiles for all, until she was manhandled into wearing her princess birthday hat (I don't think she likes labels). The house was full of adults which I believed may have been out numbered by children (if not outnumbered it was at least very close), and a ton of delicious food including soups, sandwiches, quiche, vegetables, fondue, chips, cake, cookies and my personal favorite, raisinettes YUM!

Soon it was time to gather the boatload of Terry's and head back to Long Island. The day was long but quite enjoyable. We are thinking about having Caleb's third birthday in Trumbull along with maybe Joshua's birth, dedication, and well perhaps his first 18 years of life, it is still up for discussion. I have a feeling though if we snuck in the house and took over a floor, Markus and Keira may never find us.

There are still two houses for sale on their block, each one as big and lovely, from the outside at least, so anyone interested in relocation, I think you may want to check it out.

Again, the pictures are turning out great!
It was a full day and a very fun one at that. Lots of wonderful, yummy food and terrific company to share it with. Keira and Markus' new home is indeed beautiful. It will be the perfect place for them to raise their family. And, now that we know the way to get there, well....
