Joel's Birthday - Age 8

44 pictures for you

From Joel's 8th Birthday

Theme was Science


A3 - Washing pennies
they could use water, soapy water, or vinegar.
Rue digging - The pennies were dirty and buried in the sand.
We had several sink/float items
Joel and A2
We did a potluck - Tim cooked hot dogs.
Papaw always is the first to arrive -
and usually a half hour early wanting to eat.

I just enjoy that he gets to come,
we don't get to see Mamaw or Papaw nearly often enough anymore.
Lots of buried items - with sifting and digging tools.
Rue and V
Shirt tail cousins with close birthday's and a year apart.
It was funny.
A1 is MY nephew (sister's son).
and
AR is TIM's nephew (brother's son)
but they were so excited to find out that they were related.

They are delightful boys and had a great time hanging out during the party.

Do we have enough candles?
Some of them are the fizzlers that don't blow out.
Joel was careful to avoid fizzlers when he put on his candles.
Paul was mesmerized -
and he blew out his own candles!
A2R and Rue
There are 18 months between these two cousins.





I think we spent a whole $40 - $50 on the party - including the food.
