Birthday party

Question of the day: What do my mom, my sister-in-law Laurie, and I all have in common?
Answer: (Among other things) We all had babies on the same day!

November 6th is apparently a very good day to have a birthday, at least in our families, and we celebrated with 2 of those special birth-date people today, Colsen and Katie. (Sadly, Andrew is too far away to party with us)

Strider was privileged to have a large and loud cheering section at his football game today, and then everyone traipsed over here afterwards for a long lunch. We had a lot of fun together... and it must have been a Wray party because we even had a math riddle discussion.

Here are some of the scenes from the day:


Plenty of cakes to go around!

There were a lot of fun gifts to open.......and of course, there was some distress over who gets to play with the new cool toy... For some reason, no one was throwing tantrums over wanting to play with Aunt Katie's new gifts, though!

And isn't little Branson just the cutest? Such a little GAP guy!
