Emma's birthday party was a bowling party!

Penny and Jess spurned both parental help and the kiddie-ramp, which resulted in some comically slow frames.

Penny eventually settled for setting her ball down and pushing it down the lane.

Waiting for the results...
Of course, we all know what parties are really for!
Cake!

Evan and Aimee came for a visit. Penny took to Aimee immediately.

What does a room full of 1200 scrapbookers look like? Well... my camera could only hold about a third of the room at a time.
