Saturday Evening, May 9 (his birthday was the next day)

He is excited to be old enough to go hunting this year. He has been going to hunting classes and is doing quite well.

He chose a donut cake

This is an unposed photo of his birthday guests. 🙂

Singing happy birthday as his mom handed his “cake” to him. He did not want candles.

His sister Natalie wanted to show me how she likes to eat donuts. 🙂

Little brother Garth

Little sister Renee wanted her picture taken too.

Anthony’s sisters Natalie and Jasmine were trying to convince me that they look alike. I didn’t think so and took this picture to show them how different they look. Natalie has dark hair and is tall. Jazzy is blond and petite. Jazzy said, “But we are the same size.” They are the same size even though Jazzy is almost two years older than Natalie.

Then it was time to open presents. The first was from Pappy and Grammy (Mark & Diane) Myers. It was a quilt Diane made. Diane started it last year at our place and when Anthony saw it, he said, “I would like that.” It was neatly folded inside this pillow case.

This is a cropped shot of the quilt because the sunlight messed with the coloring of the lower section. Anthony was standing on a chair to show it to everyone.

Folding it before getting off the chair.

I enjoyed watching him open other presents, but forgot to take pictures.
