A few from the big day

Almost a week after the fact, here are a few more candids from Liam's birthday.

Rise and shine, birthday boy!.... In some ways, a birthday is no different than any other day. Here we go again with the ball thing. In the morning, I took Liam down to the local chain portrait studio so that he could be photographed next to a giant number 1. This trip to the studio went much better than the six month trip - he smiled, he didn't fall, I actually ordered some prints - we'll see what they look like when they come in next week.
After lunch, Gramma Dee joined us at the Wheels. The plan was to take Liam to the Wild Zone to maybe go on some rides. When we got there, we found out that the place is closed during the day - even on a long weekend. Chad's department had a bowling party there that afternoon, so we dropped in on them for a bit to watch.One of Chad's coworkers at the bowling alley told me that she always takes her kids into the ball room at the Wild Zone, even when it's officially closed... the lights are off, but it's not locked up. You know Liam would love a ball room. I couldn't not hop the gate to take him in... After a brief nap back at home, we headed to Gramma and Grampa Cook's for dinner. There was a birthday cake and everything...
