Birthday Season

Above is a glamor shot of Thomas taken the other day. It's for his teacher at St. Brigid School. Thomas is registered in preK-3, and we are hopeful it will be a positive experience.

The boys are at lower left. This was taken at the birthday party for Uncle TIm. Like McGarret - he is now Five Oh.

Here are the boys sitting on the steps from our driveway. It's almost like an album cover.

Well Birthday Season in the Kelly family is in full swing. Today Papa took another step toward middle age. Uncle Tim got there this past week, and Aunt Kate completes another circle around the sun on the 21st. Meanwhile cousin Jessica turned 18 on 8/6, Uncle michael (McGuire) has a birthday tomorrow, and little Thomas will turn 4 on 9/5 - just a couple of weeks away.



For Papa's birthday, Matthew decided to go pee pee around the bathroom (on purpose) and Thomas took to rapid fire spitting through dinner - they've come so far in the six months we've been home. While this put a damper on my mood, who can cast the first stone?



After dinner, we headed over to Dave & Kim Gleason's house. The Gleasons are moving to San Antonio, TX tomorrow. Texas evokes thoughts like "Remember the Alamo!" "All My Exes live in Texas" and "The problem with Texas is that it's full of Texans". There, the Gleasons can make a difference. They've got a little driving ahead of them, but they didn't seem to mind the interruption. Best wishes and safe travel to the Gleasons.
