Sydney's Seven!

I had the honor of being invited to my niece's 7th birthday party this past Saturday and, as usual, I had myself quite a good time. Actually, I'd estimate that I had about seven times a good time. I knew one of these days I'd have to use my math skills in a real life situation...just didn't realize it would be due to this blog. Sydney could probably run circles around my math skills, assuming they're even large enough to go around. Anyway, the party was a great success! Below I've uploaded a few of the photos that turned out well enough to post. Actually, this is all of the decent ones, the others are blurry or extra blurry. If you're saddened that your child's picture did not make the cut, well that's too bad, and perhaps I'll try harder next time. Seriously it's difficult to get a good snapshot of kids that just don't seem to keep still. You know, back in my day, we had to sit very still at birthday parties and were not allowed to run around making all sorts of mayhem. The kids these days with their liberal freedoms! Anyway, today I give thanks for Apple Aperture and it's sharpening capabilities.

So thanks for throwing another great party Janet and Will! Everything was just perfect. Well, almost everything. When I finally got around to eating some of the leftover bbq I brought home, I noticed there was no chicken in the container. Now I'm not going to complain about this, and certainly wouldn't do so in a public forum, but just an FYI for next time. Of course I kid, I kid. 

And yes, as that last picture indicates, the party deteriorated into a crazy dance party after most of the "sorry, gotta leave early" partygoers exited. That's just how my family rolls.
