Jasper and Olympia's Birthday

We traveled up to Ithaca to visit the Reading/Farmers for Jasper and Oly's Birthday.
Jasper is exactly one year and one day older than Olympia- they would have shared a November 15th birthday but we took too long to drive to the hospital and had to be induced on the 16th instead. One day difference is close enough.

This picture was only slightly staged....


Huge pile of presents!


Opening up a baby doll from Silly Grandmom


Making beautiful music on Jaspers new harp


Their cake made of prunes, wheat germ and carrots:


Having a snack with Grandpa the next morning. It was a two Grandpa week!


Driving


Some happy Grandparents:


More of the same:


Jasper: "Nooooooooooo Ohweeee don't touch!"




Going for a walk Sunday morning through the 'back forty' on their property. The entire weekend was unseasonably warm and gorgeous. I had been picturing their birthdays in the snow for an entire year so I couldn't leave the house on Saturday, it was too weird.





Various degrees of Reading women:



It was a great coupla' birthdays! Congratulations Oly and Jasper-guy!

Thank you for sharing these great pictures. I especially like the various degrees of Reading women and the G & G pic with Lucy waving. Happy Birthday Jasper & Olympia!
