September Birthdays!!

On Tuesday of this past week we had some park time with the grandchildren. Below Chris explores and enjoys the tunnel slide.

We had two family birthdays this week. On Wednesday Uncle Eric celebrated his birthday, and on Friday Daddy Mike celebrated his day. Saturday night the family gathered for a taco dinner.  Our immediate family plus a few extras enjoyed a good time and lots of laughs. Below Cousin Jesse and Chris have some talk time. Chris seems to be thoroughly enjoying the moment.

Uncle Jon lights the candles on the birthday cake for Daddy and Uncle Eric.

Claire and Chloe enjoy the cake and ice cream.

Chris opts for another strawberry. The boy really put away the strawberries and fresh pineapple that we served. Pretty healthy choices!

We heard a funny story this week that I want to include in the blog simply so that someday it will be in the blog book that we make each year. On Labor Day weekend Claire and Chloe spent some time with us. We were invited to our friends' house for a delicious BBQ dinner. Our friend Earnie, the chef, told us this week about a conversation he had with Claire at the BBQ. Earnie had made the girls some little boats out of tin foil so that they could play in the waterfall fountain on the patio. And play they did...what a great time they had. Earnie relayed that he saw Claire wad up some little thing and put it in the boat before putting it in the water. He asked her about it and she replied, "It is baby Moses, but don't worry, I put a life jacket on him." We have sure laughed about that this week.

Can't believe the last week of September is upon us! The best part is that the weather should cool down just a bit. Enjoy your week!
