Birthday 2011 Fun

Yesterday, was a fun-filled day on the Rappahannock River. To celebrate Sharon's and my birthday we got some friends and family together to all take a River Brunch Cruise.

Welcome aboard. (some pics are taken from Kristen's flickr)

Here is the boat parked at the Fredericksburg City Dock.

Paddle Wheel :)

Chatham Bridge with a train sitting on tracks.

There was a live band playing 90's cover songs. I thought they sounded nice.

Sharon's niece and nephew. Soooo cute and very well behaved. :)

One of the guys steering the boat. Sharon's niece and nephew went up and they let them steer the boat and also blow the horn. So cute! :)

We had a buffet brunch. On the buffet was salad, dressing, rolls, fruit (with pineapple, passion fruit, peaches and papaya) carrot cake, Macaroni salad, Green beans, carrots, mashed potatoes, quiche (sausage, egg and cheese) and then some roast beef.

Gene (Nate's dad) getting ready to eat. :)

Kristen made cupcakes!! They were so awesome and tasted so good. They are perfect for a summer birthday. :) They were orange and yellow inside. I think rainbow cake mix inside would be cute too. These def put a smile on everyone's face. :)

Group shot.....Kristen, Joe, Nate and his parents are missing from shot.

A blue heron. :)
The pillars inside the boat were covered with rope. LOVE!

And a picture of Nate and me. :D We had a terrific time and one that will always be memorable.
