Blasto - Party Animal

A couple of weeks ago Mommy and Daddy took me on a car ride. I like car rides, so I thought it would be fun. We kept driving and driving, we were in the car longer than I can remember. I was starting to get tired of sitting in my car seat, so I have to admit I was a little fussy after awhile. But then we all got out of the car and went into a room with beds and a crib. I heard Daddy call it a "HOTEL" We were only there for a few minutes then we left again. We were only in the car a couple of minutes this time, then we went into a place with loud music and lots of tables. We went into a room where there were a bunch of people who seemed happy to see Daddy. Daddy was talking to some people and Mommy was dancing with me and she told me we were at a "PARTY" I liked it! There were lots of people there and everyone seemed to be having a lot of fun and people were really nice to me. Daddy took me to meet some people.

Daddy said this man is named John, but I heard Daddy calling him Jebby. Daddy's weird. Anyway, Daddy said that he's the birthday boy, that he's turning 40, and that this was his party. I liked this guy, he made funny faces.

This is my Daddy's friend Doug holding me. Daddy is being goofy. Doug rode with us some of the way in the car. He is nice and he makes Daddy laugh.

Daddy said this is his friend Shirley. She was really nice, too. I thought she was pretty and that made me smile.

This is Joanne. She's John's wife, and she's the one who threw the party. I just wanted to touch her face to say thanks.

I mostly played with Mommy. We had fun. I like to party!

After awhile I got tired and Mommy took me back to the hotel. I had a hard time sleeping in their crib, it just wasn't as comfortable as my bed. I don't think Mommy and Daddy slept well either, because every time I got up and made noise, they got up too.

The next morning we got in the car again and drove for a long time, but not as long as the day before. We stopped at a "RESTAURANT", and Grandpa was there! I like Grandpa! He was there with his special friend Grandma Jane. Everybody had something to eat, and everybody took turns holding and playing with me.

Here's me and Grandpa in the restaurant. Daddy says I look a lot like Grandpa, what do you think?

Grandpa took a picture of me and Mommy and Daddy. It was really nice outside!

Here I am with Grandpa and Grandma Jane. Grandpa gave me the baseball uniform, but I'm not sure what baseball is.

After everybody ate and we took some pictures and everybody talked and stuff, we got back in the car for another really long ride. I'm glad Mommy and Daddy took me to see fun people and do fun new things. I can't wait for another adventure!
