Birthday Extravaganzas and Horse Races - 60/365

It was birthday party extravaganza day! 
 Today was Papa's birthday, along with Ally's birthday party! 
We were all heading up to Amherst to celebrate! Reagan couldn't wait to wish Papa a happy birthday, she waited all day! And, we still can't believe Ally is five already. Seriously, how does time go so fast!? 
She had a Bubble Guppies theme and her cake was adorable! We had a really good time with lots of great company. Nikki had quite the spread, too! Chicken, mashed potatoes, stuffed shells, stuffed cabbage, fruit, veggies, cookies and cake! We were STUFFED! 
We all gathered around the table and sang Happy Birthday to Ally. Next, Nikki was so sweet that she actually got Papa his own birthday cake. We sang happy birthday to him, too, with candles and everything! It was a hoot! We had such a nice night. 
Reagan and I ended up riding home with Nana and Papa, because Jim was off to the Children's Circle of Friends, Night at the Races at the Saxon Club in Austintown. Greg was running the event and all proceeds went to D&E Counseling Center. Jim met his mom and dad and had a great time. Sean and Barb were there, too. It was nice to see them. 
Jim said he bet on a few races, won $8.00 on one race, but lost overall. He specifically bet on one horse named "Charlie Horse", because out of the blue, Reagan named her stuffed horse that. Without any prompting either. Unfortunately, Charlie didn't win. Oh well, it was a nice night out to benefit the center. 
 The photos of the day are Papa and Ally celebrating their birthday's!
Finally, Jim, Greg and Nikki at Night at the Races.
