Labor Day Weekend Birthday Party

September is a month for birthdays in the Gould household. Joseph's birthday was September 1st. Mine was the 3rd, and Austin's is coming up on the 23rd. Since we were coming down for Labor Day weekend, my Mom threw us a big birthday cookout and invited Joseph's family to come out for the celebration.
All three of us sisters got our hair cut on Friday. It seems we have similar taste, don't you think? Megan is on the far left, and Jane is in the middle. I had to get a picture with my brother Ben in it.
Our Transformers cake.

I thought this was such a good picture of Megan that I had to post it. She just started her first semester at MTSU in the pre-vet program and really seems to be enjoying it.
One of Austin's birthday presents was a parachute game. I hadn't played that game since elementary school gym class.
Austin was so pleased to open his birthday presents. This is a toy cash register. When I asked him a few weeks ago what he wanted for his birthday, he told me he wanted money. Isn't that funny? How does a boy his age have any concept of the value of money? Needless to say, he has greatly enjoyed having some coins all to himself.
The look on his face says it all.
