Well, it’s no ordinary year, which means our fall birthdays this year were celebrated in an unordinary fashion. We still had fun with decorations – Autumn’s theme was Harry Potter, and Mia’s theme was trees. Luca helped out a lot this year.

We held a virtual party over Zoom with family. Everyone sent gifts in the mail beforehand, so we could enjoy opening them together.

Above all else, we are thankful to have such wonderful family and friends, and that everyone is healthy and safe. We miss you all, and can’t wait for the day when we can all get together again with big hugs.

Keep on rocking second grade, and we can’t wait to see how you grow this year!

This year Luca chose to take the family to iFly, for a thrilling, high-flying adventure. It’s basically indoor skydiving, where you hover over a giant fan.

As you can see, Autumn and I aren’t that excited about it, although I’m hiding it better than she is
Mama first
It was more fun than I expected!
Luca’s turn
A natural!
After observing everyone else in the group, Mia decided to give it a try

And now for the joint party, which we held at Spring Garden Park. The kids jumped, climbed, and played their hearts out in between bites of lunch, opening presents, and birthday cake and pie. Oh and Spider Man also made a special appearance. Happy birthday Autumn and Mia, we enjoyed this week and a half of celebrating both of you wonderful, amazing kiddos!

This year Autumn decided she didn’t want to do a joint birthday party with Mia. She has been asserting her individuality more lately, and wanted to have her own party. We agreed on a compromise, where she and Mia could have their own small parties at home on their actual birthdays, and then a joint, bigger party with the whole family on the weekend. So here is round one, individual parties:

Happy birthday to our sweet Monkey Moo! Somehow you are 8 years old – did we enter a time warp when you were born?? Thank you Luca for bringing such joy into our lives. You are sensitive, caring, thoughtful, analytical, hilarious, creative, joyful, pensive, and exuberant! You love the earth and all it’s creatures, especially a certain black and white flightless bird in the antarctic, riding your bike through everyone’s yards in the neighborhood, details and facts about anything and everything, harry potter, the flash, spring rolls, pokemon cards, reading books, yelling loudly, playing your violin, getting lost in your imagination for hours, listening to all different kinds of music but especially classical and rock and roll, watching your baby cousin grow, and above all you love your family. We are so lucky to have you!
