Birthday Cake and Ice Cream

We went to a birthday party

to celebrate GG's life.

We had our fill of yummy cake with cherry ice cream too .


Hayden tried to master the art of the jigsaw puzzle.



And the babies, well they....


RAN!

I bet those babies (and Hayden) got lots of attention at GG's place. Older people love cute little kids.

Happy Birthday to your GG!

Happy Birthday to GG! I love Hayden's expression as he is working on that jigsaw puzzle.

Nothin' better to a toddler than an open hallway.

Hippomanic Jen said...

Yep. Open hallways = RACETRACK!!

Blythe said...

I have to admit, I suffer from the same temptation... apparently the urge does not go away by 21.

Kat said...

Running is awesome!

Shelley said...

I love your babies. They remind me of mine running through the halls. And me running to catch them. LOL.

I think open spaces + toddlers always = running around screaming. It's some weird law of nature.

I would like to request more pictures of running triplets. Because that's just good stuff right there...

What a great event! She looks like a fine young woman:-)

Heather said...

Heck, I bet they could've kept up with me at the race this weekend!

I remember Gabe at that age. He had two speeds: RUN and ASLEEP.

Good luck with that.

Maternal Mirth said...

... often, as babies do.

I might need to take a lesson from the babies as there is a slight jiggle going on in my thighs.

Nothing better than a long hall to run in!

Jaysi said...

I bet seeing all those babes made GG's day! Man they are cute!

Caitlin said...

Looks like a fun party- and I bet the babies slept good (or at least not horrible?) after all that RUNNING! :)

Ha. I had to laugh... at the memories. My dad was in a "nursing home" for rehab care post getting hit by a car, and then 2 more times for knee replacements. Anyway... we had Christmas, Thanksgiving, and a bday or 2 there. And that's exactly what those kids did (my 2 and later the 3rd, and my nephew). Plus, during the holidays, they have this "Dancing Santa" that is life-size. When you press his hand he dances, though he looks like a senior Santa sorrt of gyrating after a hip replacement. At first the kids were scared. Later they kept hugging him (and knocking him over).

I want cake.

We're going to a birthday party on Sunday... I can't wait for cake.


And my girls call their great-grandma (my Nana) GG! :)

Unknown said...

Thanks so much for posting these adorable pics -- and the great story to go with them! It's interesting that so many people use GG for Great-GRandma. I can't wait to show this to her. THANK YOU!!!!

Cristin said...
