Every good party ends with 'naked time'

Today Mamaw and Dadaw hosted an early birthday party for our Isaac so that his Indy-bound relatives could enjoy him turning four. Mamaw in her utter crazyhood found some place that made a dinosaur cake, replete with candles that roared.



There were also people-dinosaurs who roared, though they didn't get a chance to sit atop the cake.



Speaking of people, everybody who's anybody was there. All direct O'Neal descendants were represented -- us, Aunt Robin & Uncle Joe, Cousins Nate, Emily, and Sarah -- as well as Mamaw's Aunt Midge and Mamaw's sister-in-law Lorraine and her daughters Alicia and Victoria. A whole crowd to cheer on our favorite preschooler.



Even non-O'Neals were invited, that's how serious Mamaw is about her preschooler birthday shindigs.



There was much playing with birthday presents, cousins, and guitars.





Close to 11:00, it may have been time for people to go to bed. Not us! But maybe other people somewhere in the universe. Jacob and Isaac bid goodnight to their favorite ladies.
