Madd Max Has A Columbus Morning

Puzzles.

More swings.

The Bean-Boozled challenge.

And more gaming.

Madd Max Have A Summer Day

Corn hole.

Swing.

Ice cream.

Princess Ahna braids.

Followed by some gaming at the party for Uncle Wills at Seventh Son Brewing.

Celebrating Uncle Wills becoming the next Dr. Kender.  Yay!

Madd Max Sees More Fam

Mimi, Dozee, Tio Greg and Tia Jess all arrived for dinner from the East Coast, and Aunt Ally arrived from work.

Sam prepped cinnamon rolls for breakfast the next morning.

And if it couldn't get any better, Max found out Tia Jess used to love to play Beyblade.

Madd Max Heads To Columbus

Bright and cheerful after a red-eye.

The reward for that red-eye - a day with Uncle Wills.

The fam heads to COSI - the Center for Science and Industry.

Where this laser harp blew their mind holes.

Creating electricity for varying light bulbs.

Big, wet stone.

In the Egypt exhibit.

Under the Sea.

All of which was followed up with Jeni's ice cream - a Columbus special.

The Scrapper Has A Birthday Party

Max forewent a big party to get a WiiU, and instead had a mini with Evan, Imani and Phoenix.

The boys.

The Scrapper Turns 9

Before getting to the airport, Max had lamented traveling on his birthday. Then, he got to pick out his birthday lunch, and things got better.

Taisie told the gate staff that it was Max's birthday.

Things got even better.

At the end of the flight, he got to sit in the pilot's seat.

And at home, presents.

And ice cream cake.

Happy Birthday, our big 9-year-old!
