Happy Birthday B

Whoa! With my mom's birthday fast approaching, I knew the pictures would be fast and furious. In order to prepare, I went and got a haircut. After it was done, I received a balloon and my first sucker - a root beer Dum-Dum. I loved it!






My brother, JC, seemed bored with the idea of a birthday. He thought to himself, "This is nonsense, I had an actual birthday just three and half weeks ago. No one made me a cake! By the way, if anyone can hear me-someone tell dad to stop playing Mr. Roboto."




My dad said the theme of the party was "Fluttering towards 30!" So he made a cherry chocolate butterfly cake. Mom smiled big here, but smiled bigger after she tasted it. Yet another use for Wild Cherry M&M's!

Happy birthday B!

Happy Birthday friend. I just wanted to point out the irony that your son's initials are JC after your bff in the MTC JC Olson. Just a thought. Maybe you apprecaited him more than you let on. Thnigs to think about.

Fluttering towards thirty? Nice. Happy Birthday Brittany!

Happy Birthday B!

I am fluttering toward 40...of course, it feels more like sputtering than fluttering.

Great cake!

Celebrations all around! Can't wait to see you guys in like 2 weeks...yay! So is John going to recreate his monarch in W'burg so we can taste it--although G might run screaming from it, he has a new PHOBIA of bugs. I blame his preschool teacher who told him red ants bite, so now anytime he sees an insect of any size he lets out a blood-curdling scream (the smaller the bug the louder the squeal!)

Happy b-day, wish I could have seen you in person!

I thought of you guys at Sam's Club the other night when I saw the restaurant/Pizza Hut glasses for sell. Would have bought you some but Texas is a little further than down the street now:(.
