Ben's Bar Mitzvah

This weekend Stu, Brandon, and I went to Maryland for our nephew, Ben's, Bar Mitzvah. The weekend started Friday night with a dinner at a really good Chinese restaurant. Brandon's first and third cousins all enjoyed seeing and playing with him. It was too bad there was only one of him to go around because they all wanted to hold him.

Ben's Bar Mitzvah was on Saturday. Brandon was in the babysitting room for most of the service. He then slept through the first two hours at the restaurant. Once he woke up he was happy to hang out with all of the big kids.

After the Bar Mitzvah we went back to Debbie and Rich's house. This morning we went to Debbie and Rich's house again for breakfast. It was a busy but fun weekend and really nice seeing everyone.
