Birthdaypalooza! Pictures

Balloons make everything better, it would seem. At least for Alex. Not for me, as I am still traumatized by An Unfortunate Balloon Incident with a clown at a rodeo when I was 4.

Alex and his cousin, Melissa - I don't think they could adore each other any more than they do. Alex loves Melissa because she includes him in everything. Melissa loves Alex because when she includes him in everything, he does whatever she asks him to do. It works out beautifully for all.

Chips = GOOOOOOD. Hey Lea Margaret - does the shirt look familiar? Thanks again for it - I think it is so cute.

Nighty-night after lots of birthday fun. And a piano recital, of course.
