Gus' Second Birthday Party

We celebrated Gus' second birthday today - a couple of days late, but weekends are much more conducive to getting folks together apparently ;). It was a little stressful getting ready for it, but a lot of fun. Thank you to everyone who came; to those who weren't able to make it: we missed you!

The party was held at West Fenwick Park, a nice mid-sized park a couple miles south of our apartment. I've posted pictures I took there on our Picasa account in case anyone is curious. Thanks go out to my mom for providing the cake and sandwiches fixings, and my lovely wife Rose for planning it all and not killing me when I went into overdrive trying to get ready for it this morning :)

Seafair - Pictures and More

Whew - it has been a bust summer! We've been kept up late a lot of nights with Ruby, who doesn't like to sleep most of the time... but she is such a sweet kid that I can't hold it against her.

Rose and the kids went to Seafair this past weekend, when it was free entry on Friday, and had a blast. There are bunches of pictures up on our Picasa account of it, along with some new general family ones listed under July and August.

My aunt and uncle are in town this week as well, and we had fun hanging out with them last night. I'll be taking my uncle, who used to be in the Army / National Guard, to play paintball this Friday after work - I'll try to take pictures to share, if I can remember to bring my camera with me. On Sunday we are getting together with some other family to celebrate a birthday (one of my other aunts) and have a big family dinner... I'll be posting some pictures from that as well!
