veteran's day parade/beth's birthday

The annual Veteran's Day Parade in downtown Bowling Green coincided with our celebration of Aunt Beth's birthday this year (in early November). Dad and Martha came and met us to watch the fun. There was a lot of candy thrown by those in the parade, and this is dad/Grandpa trying to open a piece while holding Phoebe.

We ran into our friends the Cahoons, whose kids collected a TON of candy. There are five of them so it is not too hard to imagine. There was much sugar consumed that morning. Lewis was picky about which candy he wanted, of course!

After lunch at Mariah's, we returned to Beth's place for cake.

We tried to capture the essence of Beth in the style of this one.....but that's no easy task.

Candles aglow.

Lewis was eager to sing and help blow out candles.
