Happy Birthday Eli...21 years old

We took cupcakes and gummy fish to school on Friday for Eli's birthday. His friends in the classroom, as well as teachers, gathered to sing happy birthday and enjoy treats.

Below is Eli's friend Maria.....

And Eli's friend Sasha. These two have became good friends this year.

Sasha is sweet with him. She is a-verbal s well - or maybe has a few words.

The group signing Happy Birthday...led by Mr. Chauncy - one 0f the gym teachers that takes the Life Skills Class for gym twice a week.



Mr Chauncey and Mr. Doug.
Mr. Doug has a classroom with hearing impaired kiddos - but the classes share some activities together - so Eli knows and likes Mr Doug as well.



Eli's friend Danny....he rushes up to the door to greet all the visitors.

More friends - Terry on the left and Raphael on the right.

Cards and cake to celebrate Eli turning 21.

HaPpY BiRtHdAy tO KeViN

Kevin plays a gig once a month at a restaurant called "The Loft". It is located on an organic farm with a dairy and creamery. The menu changes seasonally and they always have fresh, local, organic meats and vegetables. The band provides some dinner music that picks up a little in tempo as the evening goes on.

During a break we had cake and candles for Kevin.

I collected some fans to celebrate Kevin's 50th - Paul and Kathy, Maureen and Mark, Jay.

It was a nice evening.

Kevin's 50th Birthday

We celebrated Kevin's 50th birthday (May 19th) by going to Nashville, Tennessee for a long weekend. A fun city with a lot of live music and fabulous food.

Kevin loves rivers and river boats - so we took a lunch cruise on the General Jackson Paddle boat. It was quite impressive and at least 4 times bigger than the boat we took the cruise on in St. Louis

We enjoyed fish and chips at an Irish Pub.

Nashville is a beautiful city with parkland and artwork.

Downtown Nashville...

With all the rain we have had the river is up 10+ feet. You can see the river lapping at the walk along the river front.

A fun birthday celebration weekend!
