An April Party

April 20th, 2009

Since there are so many birthdays in April amongst our family and friends, we decided to pick a weekend this month, throw a party and celebrate them all together. After a few schedule complications, postponing, and people getting sick (poor Nate…)  we were finally able to have our “April Party” last Saturday. And, though we sorely missed the company of another family and birthday-er, the day was glorious and filled with merry making!

We gathered at Valerie’s house in the early afternoon. On our agenda were many activities: ultimate frisbe, airsoft, eat dinner, cake and ice cream, have a bonfire and whatever else! Thus we spent our fun-filled day, with a few changes here and there (we replaced ultimate frisbe and bonfire with video games and Killer Bunnies), and didn’t leave until after 10:30! I guess you could say we had a great time. I guess… :-P

I, of course, was almost never without our camera, and took lots of pictures! You might want to view these as a playlist, and only click on the ones that appear interesting to you, since I posted so many.

And if you’re wondering why I’m not in any of the pictures, that’s because I was the one taking them (oops, forgot to do the self portrait thing…) However, since I knew I would be asked this question, I searched and searched through the day’s files and finally found this!

See the girl doing dishes in the background? That’s me! :-D Oh yeah! Perfect shot.

Another big Happy Birthday to all the birthday people! Have a great day!

    Your pics came out so much better than mine. That’s a great slideshow widget! Mine are on Flickr if you want to see them, I will post a few on my blog when I get the chance. Fun! Same time, next year!

    Yeah, I definitely think we need to do it again next year. Joint birthday parties are so much fun! (well, parties in general!) You’re like the queen of hospitality Valerie – thanks so much for hosting!

    @Leah
    Love you too! I’m so glad you could come!

    @Esther
    I agree with Nate. :-P Were you referring to the airsoft battle when you said that Walter won? ‘Cause if you were, I think it was actually Nate or Evan who won – I’m not sure though. After a couple of “organized” games (with teams, specific house rules…) we just decided to run around and shoot at each other until we got tired!
