One Year Later



I don't know if anyone checks this blog anymore...I don't.  Anyway, I was just scanning Darren's favorite blog list and saw mine and noticed the date.  So, one year later, it's Emily's birthday again!  I can't believe it.  She is now 8 years old!  Oh, my little girl is all grown up.  She had a really good birthday this year.  No illnesses.  We took a bunch of her friends bowling and played several crazy games to keep it interesting and different.  We had a contest and everyone got a prize.  Some of the categories were fastest ball, slowest ball, the gutter ball prize, high score, low score, etc.  It was really fun.  The pics are of Em blowing out her candles and a little tunnel bowling the kids did.  That was part of the frame-by-frame game we played.  That was the kids favorite part.

On Sunday we had dinner with gma and gpa, Davey and his kids and had a little family celebration.  So, today is her actual birthday and we're kind of celebrated out so it was an anti-climactic day.  Now we're getting ready for Josie's 2nd birthday which is Sunday.

Happy 8th Birthday Emily! I wish we could be there to celebrate with you.

Amy, I hope you post again before next birthday!

I'll try to post more often. Maybe twice a year. Check out my updated profile picture. Emily took that of me in Telluride. Isn't she a good photographer? And you wonder, Darren, why we don't have any pics of me?

It looks like Emily has inherited the Knott photography bug. Could we get her for our family photo this year?

Sure, if you want the photo to be only of the tops of your heads or from the waist down. he he!
