Nothing better than a dance party. Sometimes you just have to dance it out and nothing else will do. Our oldest turned six this past weekend and we celebrated in grand style at the local bowling alley. They have a suite in the back of the facility that you can rent out for just $2 more per person. This proved very wise of us–considering the energy we would spend trying to keep Asher from running into other people’s lanes. :) I think we may have saved some stress for the other patrons, as well.
It was a joy to see Noah celebrated, Cooper having fun dancing, and Asher toddling and surrounded by his favorite objects–the brightly colored balls. I had one of those moments where you look around and the world gets quiet and all feels just right. I try to take mental snapshots of those moments–and my mind’s camera captured these images.
