Day 64 of 365

Another full day…  We all gathered at Michelle and Todd’s after church to celebrate Todd’s Birthday.  As I’m typing this I just realized it was his 40th birthday.  We had no black decorations anywhere – there is always next year!

It was good time – the kids enjoy every second together.  We decided to take a picture of all the grandkids in birth order.  I actually got a picture of everyone smiling!  What a difference a year makes – last year when we were at Disneyland, it was like trying to pull teeth to get them in a group picture.  August, September and October are busy birthday months for our family.  Stay tuned for more birthday celebrations.

As soon as we were done, the fun began again.
Chasing, teasing and wrestling happened
for at least half an hour after the picture was over.

After all the fun, Morgan had homework
to do for preschool!  Seriously, homework
in preschool?
