It’s his birthday and he’ll sleep if he wants to….

Guess who’s birthday it is today?

 


Maxwell has officially turned one.

 


And this is how he is choosing to spend his big day.

 


I can’t blame the guy. I’d prefer to spend my birthday much the same-catching up on my sleep.

We are so glad you are a part of our lives, Max. Happy Birthday (said in a hushed tone)!

It’s My Birthday and I have a few Wishes

I’m getting older-today.

Not too old, mind you-but older. I still have my original teeth, hair and eyesight-so, I’m still doing pretty good.

And, since it was my birthday today, I’d thought I’d let you in on a few wishes that I have:

 


1. I wish I could eat these without gaining an ounce-every day of my life.

 


2. I wish some rich super distant uncle I had never met bequeathed this sweet ride to me.

 


3. I wish kittens never died. Instead, they would be whisked up into heaven just like Elijah.

 


4. I wished these people….

 


5. …and these people lived closer.

 


6. And above all, I wish I never disappointed this guy, made him mad or ticked him off. Fat chance, but I’ll sure as heck try.

I have many more wishes, but I’ll keep it to six. I need time to go party!

Happy Birthday, Biceps

It’s the most wonderful time of the year! Biceps is growing closer to being an old man, and furiously trying to catch up to my old age.

 

We are six months apart, and I Lord this fact over him from time to time. It’s really funny when Grandma insists that we go by age for our line-up at prayer time. He has to go first. Hah.

 

But, since it’s his Birthday today, I am going to make this short and sweet.

 

I love this man. And here are a few reasons why:

1. He is the hardest worker I have ever seen.
2. He is one of the most positive people in my life.
3. He is faithful to me.
4. He opens my door. Every time.
5. He just sent his mother and me on a “Pamper Day”. But, he is the one busting his behind for 13 hours a day at his new job.
6. He puts God first, then me second-before himself-before football. And he LOVES football.
7. He is my best friend.

Happy Birthday, darling. I love you.

A Sneaky Surprise for Cynthia

Yesterday, my best friend turned another year older.
I had a sneaky thought and decided to act upon it:
Decorate her house while she is gone.
I am very, very sneaky.

Plus, I love cutting things out of construction paper.
It’s kind’ve a win-win.
This is my trial run of the proposed decor on my kitchen floor.


I fell in love with this crazy ‘w’. It will be hard to let him go.


Her front door is about to get decorated and it won’t even know what hit it.
I was thrilled at this point that I hadn’t misspelled anything.


Giant confetti bits will be dotting the windows of her house.
Watch out world, here we come.


And no birthday decorating extravaganza is complete without flowers.


I have become pretty obsessed with tying notes to things using ric-rac. It just adds a little sassy pizzaz.


Biceps was on ‘tape duty’, I was on ‘placement duty’.
I regret making the ‘I’ in ‘Cynthia’ so dang large. I don’t know what happened there.


I think we added just the right amount of crazy to the birthday girl’s house. And gave her puppy a little excitement during the day. Sorry about that Mabel….
Oh, well. Happy Birthday, Cynthia!
