WHAT A WAY FUN TO SPEND A SATURDAY.

DUE TO EVERYONE'S BUSY SCHEDULES, DARYL 

IS STILL CELEBRATING HIS BIRTHDAY.

TODAY WE WANDERED DOWN TO  THE GRANDAUGHTERS THREE'S FOR ONE OF THOSE CELEBRATIONS.  WE WENT A LITTLE EARLY SO WE COULD CATCH SOME OF ROXANNE AND SYDNEY'S WATER POLO.  DUE TO AN ACCIDENT HOLDING UP TRAFFIC  ALONG THE WAY, WE WERE TOO LATE TO WATCH ROXANNE, BUT DID GET TO SEE SYDNEY.

TIME FOR A NAP!
ROXY, DID THOSE TWO HOURS OF WATER POLO WEAR YOU OUT?

LIV HAD SPENT THE MORNING AT SWIM PRACTICE,
BUT FOUND HER RELAXATION CROCHETING A COWL.
I THINK SHE'S STARTING HER PROJECTS FOR THE
WINTER CRAFT FAIR.

GO FOR IT SYD!
(She's 17, white cap)

SHE GETS THE BALL,

AND DRIVES IT IN FOR A SCORE.

LET'S DO THAT AGAIN!

BUT THIS TIME,

SHE DRIVES IT DOWN,

AND PASSES IT OFF BEFORE SHE GETS DUNKED,

AND HER TEAMMATE SCORES.
GREAT JOB SYD!

 TO GET THE PICTURES OF THE GAME, I JUST POINT AND CLICK THROUGHOUT THE GAME, AND THEN LOOK AT THEM ON THE COMPUTER WHEN I GET HOME.  I ALWAYS GET A GOOD LAUGH OUT OF ONES LIKE THESE, WHERE IT LOOKS LIKE SHE'S KILLING HER OPPONENT.

 SHE'S BEHIND THE GIRL WHO LOOKS LIKE SHE'S ABOUT TO DROWN. 

THIS GIRL LOOKS LIKE SHE'S SCREAMING FOR HER LIFE.
JUST WHAT IS IT YOU'RE DOING TO THEM SYD?

 AFTER THE WATER POLO, IT WAS TIME FOR THE BIRTHDAY DINNER,

AND WHAT A DINNER IT WAS!
CRAIG DID CHEAT A LITTLE BIT.  SINCE IT WAS SUCH A BUSY AFTERNOON, HE LET PHIL MAKE THE CIOPPINO.  I'M HERE TO TELL YOU IT WAS WONDERFUL! 

ALONG WITH DINNER CAME A LITTLE ENTERTAINMENT.
AFTER EATING THE CLAMS, LIV USED THE SHELLS AS
CASTANETS WITH  HER DANCE .

AND WE ALL KNOW WHERE THAT PART OF HER PERSONALITY COMES FROM!  CRAIG ENTERTAINS US WITH HIS NEW EARRING, THE CRAB CLAW.

BRITTNEY AND KURT STOPPED BY AFTER WORK
TO HAVE BIRTHDAY CAKE WITH US.

I DON'T KNOW IF YOU CAN READ THE CANDLES,BUT LIV COULDN'T FIND A 7 AND A 4, SO THE FIRST TWO ARE 68 AND THEN YOU ADD THE NEXT ONE WHICH IS A FIVE, GIVING YOU 73, AND THEN THERE IS A SINGLE CANDLE TO MAKE THE 74.

WHERE THERE'S A WILL, THERE'S A WAY!

AFTER AN EXUBERANT ROUND OF " HAPPY BIRTHDAY",
 PAPA MAKES HIS WISH, 

BLOWS OUT THE CANDLES, AND WE ALL ENJOY HIS
DELICIOUS CHOCOLATE BIRTHDAY CAKE.
ANOTHER FUN BIRTHDAY
FOR PAPA!!!
AND THE REST OF US TOO!
