April 28

Our nephew Asher celebrated this third birthday this past week, so today we went up to Concord to observe the occasion with a red (as in the color)-themed party. The grown-ups (and teenager) chatted while the kids frolicked in a mini bounce house and ran around like energetic little people are wont to do on exciting days. (Or on any day that ends in Y.)

It was a lovely day to be outside and equally lovely to see the cousins having fun together. Time flies by, after all, so it's always a blessing when we have the chance to celebrate one another.
