THE HAPPY BIRTHDAY BROTHERS

Scott and his brother Kevin have the same birthday.

2 years apart.

We celebrated their birthdays together tonight.

Lasagna, garlic bread and cake.

Scott ~ DQ Ice Cream Cake

Kevin ~ Lemon Cake

What did Scott want to play after eating???

Race to the Bathroom.

Well, the flu the rest of us had over Spring Break...

he decided to finally get on his birthday.

Yuck!

Before passing out last night,

he told me that this day doesn't count towards his birthday week!

(yes, we celebrate birthdays for a week in this family...go ahead, be jealous!)

THE GIRLS MADE NEW FRIENDS

SERIOUSLY.....THEY MADE THEM!
(hee hee)

HE TAKES AFTER HIS UNCLE

My brother Andrew and his wife Jessica gave me this apron for Christmas.

Thought it would make it fun for me while in the kitchen doing all my baking.

I was going to title this "mommy's little helper"

but then I realized he was trying to be like his uncle....

Uncle Andrew gettin' sassy in the kitchen...

doesn't my apron compliment his Oregon lumberjack shirt???

CHURCH...PROPERTY...TO BE HOUSE...UPDATE

We are still trying to figure out what to call our 'to be home'!?

I still say church...which I have been told to stop.

Riggs calls it 'home' every time we pull into the driveway....

but, that gets confusing since we aren't actually living there yet.

So, here are the umm...church, umm...property, umm...'to be house' newest pictures:

walking in from the entry way/front door

the side rooms and stage are gone

kitchen has been disassembled

view from kitchen...

sanctuary walls/doors are gone

glowing cross....still there!

looking back from what used to be stage area

bathrooms stalls gone

SCOTT'S PRACTICE BIRTHDAY PARTY

For 2 months and 2 days out of the year, I am older than Scott.

And, he LOVES that time...
reminding me of how old I am and how he is SO much younger.

Ridiculous.

I only have 2 more days of being older than my husband...thank goodness!

Wednesday we will have his real birthday celebration with all his family but we had our little 'practice party' this weekend.

We had his standard lasagna, basketball, ice cream cake from DQ
and his surprise gift.... 

He got so excited....it brought tears to my eyes!

He is such a good gift giver and a lot of times Im not...

so it made me happy to see him happy!

Floyd of Rosedale

(Iowa vs. Minnesota Football Trophy)

I think part of the excitement is that he will soon have a place to display all his 'trophies' instead of packing them back in the box for storage!

Yes...Scott got into his cake before blowing out his practice candle.

SPRING BREAK ~ DAY FIVE

Now its Riggs' turn....

Spring Break can be over now.
