Representin' the Deuce August 18, 2009









The release and follow-through...



The excitement...



The anticipation...



The encouragement...



The waiting...



Still waiting...



The celebration...



The cheers from the crowd...



How many pins did you knock down?












On Uncle Dave's birthday we ate corn-on-the-cob, steak, fries, watermelon, popcorn and others of his favorite sundries. Dar sent us his favorite candies and we felt hugged getting our sugar highs with nerds, starbursts, and peanut butter M&M's. After dinner we went bowling in our pj's just as he would have loved to do. We had a terrific night of fun. (We hadn't left the bowling alley and Emmie wanted to know when we could do it again.) It is at least an annual tradition now in our family.
Wish you were here Dave, I think you would have had a great time with us celebrating you.

Hey Saralyn - I don't comment much, but I love that you're posting so often these days. I laughed out loud at the videos of Emmie getting her teeth cleaned and of Thane getting tickled. And I especially like jammies at the bowling alley!

Thanks for the updates!

Sounds like a very fun day! Emmie must be a natural. I love the form you and Spencer exhibited. Did Emmie win?

What a great way to celebrate Dave! I'll have to keep that in mind, for future remembrances. Great grins!
I'm almost to the point where I can wear regular shoes again.
