This past Saturday was a fun day for the family as it was Oliver’s birthday party, and Zach and Pat were guests (along with there parents to, of course) at this special occasion.

When we arrived we could see Oliver peeking outside the Mazerolle’s big bay window, and as we got out of the car we could hear him calling “Hello Zachy”, “Hello baby Pat”. Once the boys were inside it was full-out running and excitement – at least for Zach and Oliver. Patrick contented himself with some balloons and other toys that he found on the floor.

The running was fun, but it wasn’t to long before Zach spied a shiny new Richard Scarry book that Oliver had been given earlier for his birthday and was compelled to sit down and read. He loves books – especially ones by Richard Scarry.

As for Oliver? He played us a nice song on his one-string guitar.

Soon the food (pizza) arrived and we all stuffed ourselves, with the exception of Zach who was “scared” of being fed by either Julia or myself. Oh the fun we have trying to feed that silly boy!

If Oliver was excited about having friends and family over, then he was even more excited about his birthday cake. It didn’t’ take him long at all to polish off a big piece .. with “hardly” any mess at all!

Something tells me that he loved it. Happy Birthday Oliver!
