Lauren's Birthday Dance

Our good friend Lauren celebrated her 18th birthday this past Saturday by hosting a barn dance at her grandparents' farm. A nice size group showed up and we enjoyed dancing, lawn games and food.

"Swing your partner..."

Pensive?

Spectators

Mrs. Erber having... um... shall we say difficulties learning the Postie's Jig (spelling?). Everyone offers their assistance... :-)

Clara

Maggie converses with Dad (notice that I did not say, Dad converses with Maggie) :-)

Ladder Ball

Lauren & Me

Tennessee Wagon Wheel

Lighting the Candles...

...and blowing them out!

Clara was being so cute - she climbed on the bean bag toss board and dropped the bean bags through the hole, and then took them out and did it again. :-) Simple pleasures.
