Danny turned 5 years old. It took 3 birthday parties to get him there. Last week was his small party at Gramalie’s. Yesterday he had remarkable Nathan, Robert Butker, Jessica Rowe, and Shawn over. Nicole, of course, was there as guest/sister/babysitter.
I took them on a tour to the river while Kathy gave Sue Rowe a tour and Nancy fed little Brian in the reading/feeding room. We ate blackberries on the way. Inside we played musical chairs to the Beatle’s birthday song. Kathy then set up the table for all the kids to make their own pizzas using small Bobolli (sp?) breads. These were very good, and all the kids enjoyed them except for remarkable Nathan. He put a tiny bit of sauce in the middle with two pepperoni’s. After cooking his pizza, he nibbled the edges off.
On Danny’s actual birthday, Carol, Bob, Eric, Ted, and Grant came over for the family lunch party. Bob cooked hamburgers on my grill while Ted and Grant watched, making smoke signals with the Webber top. We had fun. Hope Danny did.
