Owen Turns Nine Years Old

Owen started planning his birthday party in September when we moved to Victor. His ideas for potential venues: Lava Hot Springs, Enclosure Climbing Gym, Jackson Rec. Center Pool, BYU Badger Creek Sled Hill, Targhee. He finally decided just to have it at home and make it a sledding party. Great. Simple.

He had to wait until the week after his actual birthday because his best friends would be out of town and it would not be a party without them. After two years in St Louis he was not going to tolerate another Lucy and Ethan-free celebration.

The whole B.D. weekend was almost derailed by sudden illness but he managed to condense what for every other kid in his class was a 3-4 day illness into 36 hours. We only had to postpone one day!
