Triple Happy Birthday

I swear SmileChild started celebrating her birthday at the beginning of October, at least it seems that way. The first thing on the celebration menu was SmileChild at Applebees Friday evening. I got there as quick as I could after work, about five minutes later than everyone else.

SmileChild and Bethany trying to decide which "Ultimate Trio" they are going to order.


Emma likes her hair played with, I love Emma's frizzy doo, what's not to understand?


It must have been birthday friends (bring your) relatives night at Applebees.

After we finished up our dinners, and headed over to the Eagle's Club for a night of swing dancing. SmileChild must have had about, oh, fifty friends show up, and unfortunately for lead-follow dancing balance, almost all of them were ladies.

We aren't sure what happened, but one thing is for sure Alissa didn't do it.


Amazingly enough, here is a picture of Olin not smashing cake in someones face.


ErinOneDay & SmileChild dancing ... with a lot less drama than the last time we saw them together at a birthday jam.

Mae & Bex showed up after the birthday jam at JNO, around 2300 or so. No one got pictures of them dancing??? No matter. Next up on the event list was the all-nighter at Spanky & Mae's.

Poor Gabe got caught in the middle of a Bex & Mae gigglefest.


He survived.


Since SmileChild doesn't drink, it must have been too much dancing.


I think playing Halo 3 on the big screen is a great way to celebrate your wife's birthday.


Usually they all sit at the bottom of the stairs, this time they chose the top. If you know why this is better, smile.

Once again another successful Triple Happy Birthday!

Much thanks to SmileChild, Cornstalker, and Cliffo for use of their photos, as always, more or less with permission.
