Alex's 17th

I find it hard to believe my girl is 17 years old! Time flies! Alex's birthday was Thursday (1/15) so we celebrated this weekend when the girls visited. Alex put in a request for crab legs, I think partly because she was left out on the New Year's Eve feast. Of course we obliged. Who are we to reject the birthday girl's request, besides, it's crab legs and we get to eat them too.


I went to Greeley on Friday evening for the Northridge High School girl's basketball games because Alex is on the team. She has a lingering shoulder injury which prevented her from playing this night, but she hopes to be back on the court soon. Following the game we returned to Denver and spent part of the evening at DJ and Danielle's visiting. My sister Nancy took Alex out for a birthday lunch at Gunther Toody's. Saturday evening's dinner was the requested crab legs and birthday present opening. Since Alex is such a huge CU Buff fan, she got yet another t-shirt and some pajamas.

Happy Birthday Alex!
