Logan’s Birthday Party
Today we got to celebrate Logan’s 6th Birthday with a party at Chuck E. Cheese’s. Certainly not a favorite of the parents, but you can’t help but acknowledge that the kids have a blast there! Logan had an “Avengers Assemble” theme. We also got to see Mike’s parents who traveled down for a visit and the party. I enjoyed talking with them while monitoring what Brian was up to. I am kind of proud about the fact that Brian digs the physical activity games more...

After some sun, the grounds were looking beautiful again, and the flowers...

This afternoon, we headed over to Cary for Nico’s Mad Science birthday party. We were happy to see the Orazis, and the kids had a blast running around the community center. Soon, it was time to settle down for some science fun, and we all enjoyed the presentation and cool science tricks....
Read MoreDouble Party Day
Today the kids both had friends’ birthday parties to attend, so, we ended up on split duty! The boys headed off for Drew’s party and lots of bouncing and air hockey, while Kendall and I went to AJ’s party at the Rainbow Party Room! She was a little shy at first, but soon warmed up and owned all those play structures! We had a laugh about the cute banana peel “slippery when wet” sign! Afterward we went home and played ponies for awhile, while we watched ponies....
