Zachary is 9!

We just finished another successful birthday party.....successful meaning "without having remembered to take pictures." :-P I had the camera all charged up; does that count for anything?

We did a "make-your-own-pizza party" where the kids got to roll out their own dough and top it with various toppings. Then Paul did an art project with them--it was pizza art, where they decorated a board like pizza, but using lots of "junk" items found at SCRAP, an interesting Portland place where lots of stuff gets donated--stuff that if it was floating around my house, I'd call it "trash" and throw it out. SCRAP's goal is to re-use in creative ways. And we did! They could make their own pizza slice with re-used stuff, and/or contribute to the corporate pizza, with a white-painted bike tube "crust." I'll post pictures of that later....I'm too pooped tonight.

Most importantly, Zac had fun, and so did the other kids. A great day!
