On Wednesday we got up to a wonderful breakfast of crepes with strawberries, blueberries and whipped cream! Mmmmmm, it was delicious!
After breakfast we drove into Ogden City Park and took a big long walk! Tony thinks we went 6 miles but I think it was more like 4. Guess we'll never know! LOL
It was beautiful with the Wasatch Mountains in the back!
There was a playground where Rowan played on the slides. Grandpa and Grandma had as much fun as Rowan!
After our walk we went to Taco Bell and had lunch. Heather had a bunch of "Free Taco" coupons from the Jazz games so we ate a cheap lunch and then we went ........BOWLING !
AND I WON!! It was only 118 but I scored the highest! Totally fun! I hadn't bowled in ages! We have the bowling alley so close to our home so we'll have to go again! I'm sure I won't be so lucky next time! LOL
When we got home, Heather fixed me my "Birthday dinner" ..... She also made me and Rowan crowns and so naturally we wore them! Rowan's looking at me like "Who is this strange woman and why is she in my space?"....
Heather made BBQ ed spareribs, baby red potatoes with walnuts, blue cheese and scallions and asparagus! It was to die for!! She's quite the little cook!
Afterwards she served the birthday buddies Angel Food cake with whipped cream, Raspberries, Strawberries and Blueberries! Rowan loved it! So much that we had to give him a bath .......
He got a bathtub toy from me and Grandpa so he loved his bath too! LOL
On Thursday we went to the Hogle Zoo! Rowan was fascinated with the animals!
My sister Lorie met up with us there and it was great to see her and catch up!
Rowan's favorite part was the carousel! He rode a Polar Bear and he was smiling the entire time!
After saying good bye to Lorie, we left the Zoo and went to the Joseph Smith movie in the Joseph Smith Building in downtown Salt Lake! Rowan was pretty good the 1st half hour and then got restless so I took him out to play so the other 3 could enjoy the show. I had fun playing with him out on the lawn. When they were finished we walked to "The Star Of India" and had Indian Food for the 1st time! Mmmmmmm, it was good!
On the way home we stopped at "Zeppe's" in Ogden and had Italian Custard! Man, these kids know how to party!!!
On Friday morning, Tony and I took off for Derek and Rachel's house while Heather got ready for the "BIG BIRTHDAY PARTY" on Saturday!

They had added a new section since the last time either of us were there and we were really excited to see the "Hall of Fame" where they had a big write up about Bernie Fisher. He now lives in Kuna and Tony and I had gone out to meet him a couple of years ago and had him sign a book that we bought for Jeff and Chris. He was awarded the Congressional Medal of Honor during the Vietnam War.
We drove down to Kern's and went to Derek and Rachel's. We had a good visit with them and enjoyed seeing the kids! Here Gideon is playing on the computer and showing off his toothless grin!
Derek and Rachel ! Happy as two bugs in a rug!
Sarah, Teancum and Helaman! They were all so cute! We visited for a couple of hours and then played games at the kitchen table! It was fun to see them all!

Saturday morning, Jon took pictures of Rowan and me and some of Heather and me & Rowan and Tony and me and Rowan. We decorated the patio and then people started showing up. 
This is the patio before the party! She went all out on Decor! So cute!

We had pizza and fruit for lunch. Heather made everyone put on clown accessories for a picture and IF you participated you were rewarded with a cupcake! It was fun! Rowan got to have his very own cake which (as you can see) he dove into! LOL He ate all the M & M's off the cake and then took to it seriously! Miles was cleaning up anything Rowan dropped!
This is the patio before the party! She went all out on Decor! So cute! A GREAT TIME was had by all! Thank you Heather and Jon for a wonderful Birthday!
It was sooooo much FUN!
