Oktoberfest/ Papa's Birthday

Yesterday was Papa's birthday. He and Mike both celebrated their birthdays this week. Every year Mike looks forward to going to Stoudt's Oktoberfest. He LOVES Germany and everything/anything German... especially the music. So all 7 of us piled into Papa's Suburban and drove to Adamstown to Stoudt's Brewery. We spent about an hour and a half in the "Beirgarten" (not long enough in Mike's opinion) before going to dinner at the Black Angus.

The little kids in their lederhosen were adorable!! Adam did not mind the loud music and Owen loved watching all the dancers. Owen also LOVED the Bavarian soft pretzels and spicy mustard. In fact, he may have eaten two pretzels!

I was a little worried about how Adam would do at dinner because our reservation was at 6pm and lately he has been going to bed at 6:30pm. It was a very quiet, kind of fancy, restaurant with tables really close together. However , Adam did great! Both boys were so well behaved.

We came home after dinner and celebrated Papa's birthday with a cake that Owen decorated earlier today. I'm thinking he could go into business doing abstract cake decorating?!It was a great evening celebrating Papa's and daddy's birthday with some good ol' German culture.
