Troy's bday was on a tuesday this year. He was no help whatsoever in telling me what he wanted to do that day so I took it into my own hands and made brownie and ice cream sandwiches at my parents house. Troy ended up really liking them.
It was a small gathering since tuesdays are a little crazy. This is how everybody looked at me when I told them to come eat dessert.
Troy thought he would be funny and blow out the candles before everyone stopped singing so I didn't get the traditional birthday-boy-with-the-candles photo.
Too much sugar and a new friend. This cat is sooo wierd
FRIDAY NIGHT
we went swimming at the infamous Green Canyon hot spring. Rockwell was so funny because we thought he would love it but when we stopped at Charles and Nancy's house to wait for them all he wanted to do was stay and play with Charlie (side note: after we picked him up all he talked about was how Charlie is is "new friend" and has "fun toys") BUT Otto loooooved it and Otto also looooves the camera.
It was awesome to have so many people show up. We were so happy to see everyone who was made it. Below is a terrible (lighting) picture of some of us in the hot pool.
Awww, the birthday boy himself in his element.
See? Point a camera at this kid and he lights up
Fred, Nita, and Julie (I put this on there so you can steal it, Nita)
Chicken fights. I like Troy's karate chop. Jordan, Josh, and Fred are also in the picture. Oh, and the back of Charles's head
It was late and we should have gone to bed but Anna talked us into going to Nielson's custard. Just look at that guilty face
WAY past his bedtime but he liked the custard. Anna took this picture and then said "k that one was.... well, you both looked at the camera"
Way past his bedtime, too. This was the face I got when I told him to smile
any comments, Troy?
"Advice: blowing out the candle's before the birthday song is over won't make the singing go away"
Words to live by. Here's to an older and wiser Troy.
