Happy Birthday to Beau!

May 8, 2008 marked a milestone for us. We had a birthday party for a teddy bear! The boys decided that we needed to have a birthday party for Bray's favorite pal, Beau (not pronounced Bo, but actually rhymes with stew). And here I never even knew it was his birthday. We had a lot of fun with their idea. We baked Beau a cake (and since he can't eat it there was a lot for us!) and the boys even brought him presents (some of their own favorites stuffed into left over gift bags!). We played pin the nose on the teddy and when Grandpa Volz heard about what we were doing he even called and sang Beau a "Happy Birthday" message on our answering machine. The boys thought that was the greatest thing! So all this craziness in hopes not to stifle their creativity! So Happy Birthday to you Beau! (In case you are wondering, I don't have any idea how old he is!)

I love reading about your family! The glasses falling down the nose while sleeping is adorable! I got a good laugh about the birthday party for Beau, too. What a lovely family you have!

We won't be able to make it to the reunion this year. If you get out our way, stop in and see us!
