The October Birthday Bedlam

We chose kind of an expensive venue for the birthday party, so they all had to agree it was OK to share. (Besides, it made it easier to fit in - Wynn's birthday, Ari's birthday, Ben's birthday, Conor's birthday, and Gabrian's birthday all in 28 days!) We went to Sky High, a warehouse-turned-trampoline park . . . so they spent the day in the air and upside down.

(It's a great place, by the way: trampolines, foam pit, dodge ball, foosball, air hockey, pool tables, arcade games. . .)

Conor

Cameron

Gabrian

Mandy

Ariana (and Heidi)

(Break time)

Dodge ball

(or almost dodged ball)

Also pizza,

cake,

ice cream,

and cookie!

Then, home to watch the opening game of the Zags basketball season (Happy Birthday, Gabrian!)

I love that Ariana has 6 letters, Gabrian has 7, and Happy Birthday has 13!

(Also love all the kids in their Zags wear.)

Fair 2012 Highlights

Wynn, waiting nervously but with good humor, for her first carnival ride ever.

Getting ready to spin . . .

Exiting the ride . . . and still smiling.

We're off!

Love the background here. :)

Ho Hum.

Survived the First Day of School '12-'13

Off To School!

First day of Kindergarten. This is one excited girl!

First day of First Grade.

6th Grade.

7th grade.

(I got a laugh out of this. I don't think they noticed that they are wearing the same shirt. That was not the shirt that was chosen and in Cameron's cubby last night, but sometime, he changed his mind and shirt, and I didn't notice until picture time. Aaah, aren't they cute? lol)
