While in Minot with friends, we were able to celebrate the birthday of Nicole (the baby among us adults). On Saturday night, we had Cold Stone Creamery ice cream cake ("Strawberry Passion"); and on Sunday (the actual birthday), we ate together at Paradiso Mexican restaurant.
Nicole, looking very natural in Mexican head gear
Mya, looking "Mayan," perhaps?
Suzanna and "Big" Ethan (not his mafia name; just a way to differentiate the two same-named children in our group), who were thick as thieves all weekend . . . and the source of much fatherly consternation on my part (she's too young to date . . . and he's Catholic!)
"Big" Ethan, "Little" Ethan, and Abigail
An exultation of children, starting in back: McKenna, Hannah, Suzanna, Hillary, Abigail, "Big" Ethan, and "Little" Ethan; and in front: Mya and Gabriel
No log of what everyone ate at lunch? :-)
ReplyDeleteGreat pictures! I hadn't taken the time to look at them yet -- I'll have to get them printed, send copies to Erin, Nicole, and Laurie, and we'll have something to scrapbook next time we're together!

Your pictures are all fantastic - helps to have good subject matter! ;-) Thanks for sharing . . .

Lurking about . . .
ReplyDeleteBig Ethan looks like an excellent childhood 'crush' for Suzanna. Don't worry, I can help with any of the Catholic questions. We aren't all that bad!
ReplyDeleteBrace yourself Susan and Kevin, when you create such beautiful (not to mention intelligent, caring and FUN) children you're going to find them receiving positive romantic attention sooner or later. You need not worry too much. I know you're providing the girls the tools they will need for such an event. Hang in there and enjoy the ride!
Love, Cathy
Mya looks a bit different now, just a short week later. She has lost so much weight she hardly looks like a baby anymore. :-(

PS. What is the POINT of having to type in that nonsense "word" anyway?
