Tege turned 5 on 6/6/06..
Here, he and Ry check out the birthday cake, specifically the candles. We sang a quick round of the Happy Birthday song and let the boys (Ry got to help) blow out the candles.
Then, we had to relight the candles half a dozen times so Ry could blow them out again and again…
Our annual “celebrate birthdays” cookout is this weekend and a cold (just a little chilly) front has rolled through brining with it some rainy weather. Drat. Thankfully, we have some nice canopies and should be able to keep dry.

The weather has been pretty mild in our area (SW Ohio). But we managed to get the sprinkler out for some water play a few days ago.
The boys had fun!

Our Rainbow Playset is getting good use, already this year. And Ry has taken to swinging all by himself. I have pictures.. I’ll post soon.

My birthday was 2 weeks ago - we had a nice day. Â Bob took me to lunch at my favorite restaurant, J. Alexander’s.
Came home for some tasty cake:

The girls and grandma helped the boys make stepping stones for me:

They also gave me another stepping stone kit to make a stone for Jordan Riley, since her birthday was the Saturday before Mother’s Day.
