We had one more birthday party celebration on the books for last night. This was a Mexican potluck dinner with some of our closest friends to celebrate all the spring birthdays that we were too busy to celebrate as they came. One big dinner for all!

Ashley brought this amazing shredded chicken (much better than my salsa chicken) made with Wildtree seasonings and we all filled in the toppings. I made a giant Mexican salad and forgot to take a photo. But it looked pretty much like every other salad I have eaten this week.  Mexican was the theme this week. Cinco de Mayo!!

One last Happy Birthday to this guy!

We chatted the evening away, Eleanor played with her best friends and eventually the guitars came out for a little jam session/dance party.

Alex and his groupies: 

It was such a relaxing evening and just what we needed to celebrate the end of Alex’s grad semester. He is done until June and I am enjoying having his full attention when he is around!
