Home from Iraq

My brother has been in Iraq for about a year and has just come home in March. Well my very large family all met at one of my sister's home to have a birthday/welcome home party for him. I took some of the kids outside and had fun playing with them and watching them laugh when I tried to get on some of the small toys=) Thankfully no pictures of that! Um... not sure why I don't have any pictures of my brother=)My sister made this super cool cake(which tasted great!) to imitate the sand of Iraq with a mine sweeper (of course I joked that it looked like my brother was sweeping the roads with a broom=)
