At the Birthday Party of My Youngest Niece

Last week, I was at the birthday party for my youngest niece. It was an excellent time of fun, food, and fellowship. Below are a few pictures from the evening.


This is a board game given as a gift in which the objective is to collect the most horse cards by the end of the game.

Ah, birthday fun. I believe that these gatherings are more fun for the adults than the guests of honor.

Happy birthday to your niece.

Thanks, benjamin potter. These birthday gatherings definitely are fun for us adults; but I think the children love them in our family because of all the attention and love we give them.

Thanks, photowannabe. And, yes, mint chocolate chip is wonderful ice cream!

Thanks, faye pekas. It was a good time for everyone - kids and adult.

Hi, murf. You just don't know what is fun! ;)

Thanks, judypatoootie. The birthday girl is cute, isn't she? :)

Hi, cergie. No, I didn't make the cake. The mother of the birthday girl made the cake.

Thanks, sage. No, as above I didn't make the cake; but yes I think she enjoyed the horse on the cake. She is really into horses right now.

Thanks, merili. Yes, all my nieces are adorable. And may you have a happy New Year, too!

That two-person Rook game looks intense.

We call that Tennessee For Two down here, and one person usually ends up crying.

I'm here from Sage's.

Thanks, nabeel. In our family both the young and the older love spending time together.

Thanks, shionge. The birthday party and other family events do serve as a good time to bond.

Thanks, bone, for dropping by and sharing a little bit. We Rices can get intense in our game playing. :)

Thanks, deals on wheels. She is cute, isn't she? The whole family of girls is cute.

Hi, san nakji. Well, we do come from the same parents. :)

I'm guessing she really likes horses, right? :)

I love it that you have so much family time with your brothers, parents, nieces and nephews. This is so important for all of you!
