Zane has a birthday–and a bowling party.

Zane turned 6 – yes, I said 6 – on February 2.  So for his birthday, he elected to have a bowling party.  I think everyone had a good time.  And really, I think the older kids (Mike, Mark, Tim, Curt) had as good a time as the kids did.

Loved this cake.  It was made of cupcakes in the shape of a 6!  Perfect for serving.  And Zane’s favorite cartoon.02-04-12 Zane BD party 03Zane discovered the sign outside the room and even posed for me.  02-04-12 Zane BD party 0802-04-12 Zane BD party 09Zachary, always the big brother.02-04-12 Zane BD party 1102-04-12 Zane BD party 16London, Ian, and Zane.  These two boys are in his class at school.02-04-12 Zane BD party 2002-04-12 Zane BD party 2102-04-12 Zane BD party 2202-04-12 Zane BD party 2302-04-12 Zane BD party 2402-04-12 Zane BD party 2702-04-12 Zane BD party 2902-04-12 Zane BD party 3102-04-12 Zane BD party 3202-04-12 Zane BD party 3402-04-12 Zane BD party 3902-04-12 Zane BD party 4202-04-12 Zane BD party 45Cousins – Reagan, Corey, Zane02-04-12 Zane BD party 4702-04-12 Zane BD party 4902-04-12 Zane BD party 5202-04-12 Zane BD party 53

Merry Christmas!

We had a wonderful Christmas!  And a bonus, totally unexpected white Christmas.  The weather predictions said snow flurries.  I think the “flurries” ended at about three or four inches.  We all loved it!DSC_4900 DSC_4902 DSC_4903 DSC_4904 DSC_4905 DSC_4907 DSC_4908

Traditional Christmas Eve at Deedie and Bruce’s house.  Oh, except for the fact there was not a fifth wheel in the driveway at their house.  A few nights before it caught fire and burned up.  They were really lucky as this happened in the middle of the night and Deedie just happened to wake up and see the flames shooting out.  The fire department thinks it started in the electric box.  So glad it did not lick the house and catch it on fire!

Christmas Day we did not have the kids but it was a great day.  Molly, Raylan, Sarah, John, and Lauren; Cynthia; Ross and I; Kathleen, Mike, Zachary, and Zane.  Great food – again! – and wonderful visiting.
