I know I know "a while" has really been more like months...but this is the deal, we have (well now it's had...) one computer that was the kids and one laptop that was Mark's work computer (which all our pictures get downloaded to) about 3 months ago the laptop (which Mark and I always joke is more like a 90 year old man with emphysema) took a "turn for the worse" and we have been unable to access our photos from the first half of this year. After a little trip to California to visit my AWESOME brother, he sent us his old computer and Mark's brother gave us his old (flat) screen monitor so we now have (what's new to us) a computer! So please forgive the first half of the year but now that I'm back in business with a computer and pictures it's on to the last half of the year!Kimberlyhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/16982500460012338528noreply@blogger.com1tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4442223899812812696.post-74017248918229470682011-04-05T22:49:00.005-04:002011-04-06T01:28:10.506-04:00Christmas 2010<div>Christmas morning! Before anything was touched...</div><div>We have a strict rule at our house...no one is allowed to open anything until everyone is up and sitting around the tree and no one is allowed to wake Mom & Dad up before 8 am. It never fails every Christmas morning we can hear 5 little people sitting around the tree shaking presents and trying to guess what they each have received from Santa. Then they all tiptoe into our room, whispering and giggling as they all stare at us waiting for the clock to tick 8 o'clock. Once it does...no one is safe or should I say no present is safe.</div><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEi8_qqlc6v33O97SHEdKEKhWqSWsjtj6lwdxw4Jubhyphenhyphenw5AOUJUrkY_hYZyPdFZ-tpPiKzpnGOBfVvEZouCsfFpQvzM64hWKLWTvbQE9vZHOcxVWLopxWMjHiAZREGlL28yVABCBc9-N6i0/s1600/Christmas+2010+017.jpg" onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}"><img style="display:block;

Pretty cool! This was a freezing cold night and the girls went to bed begging us to wake them up so they could watch the Lunar Eclipse that was supposed to happen around 1:30 am. Mark & I decided to wait to wake them until things really started happening. This was the first shot of the moon that night. <a href="http://localhost:2883/243de20d78f8bc7d04001d532384e3c3/image/ee2fd7da33d8cb8f.jpg"><img border="0" alt="" src="http://localhost:2883/243de20d78f8bc7d04001d532384e3c3/image/ee2fd7da33d8cb8f.jpg?size=400" /></a></div>We woke the girls up about 2:30 am when we noticed the moon starting to "change"...(which it really didn't change that's just what Megan kept saying about it!)<br /><div style="TEXT-ALIGN: center; MARGIN: 0px auto 10px"><a href="http://localhost:2883/243de20d78f8bc7d04001d532384e3c3/image/9e12b8be884af402.jpg"><img border="0" alt="" src="http://localhost:2883/243de20d78f8bc7d04001d532384e3c3/image/9e12b8be884af402.jpg?size=400" /></a> </div>It's almost gone!

My girls LOVE it and look forward to it every year. My mom and I pick a weekend night in December for her to watch the kiddos while Mark and I go out to Christmas shop. While she's here she does some fun crafty creativeness with the girls (which usually results in a Christmas gift for Mark & I from the girls...which is one of my FAVORITE gifts to get every year!) This year Mckinley became super sick about an hour before we were supposed to leave soooo...we didn't. Hence the reason I have pictures. Usually this is top secret stuff but by the time I was "allowed" to take photographs the super secret gift making craft was finished and they moved onto gingerbread men. At this point in the activity it looks like Megan and Morgan were much more interested in licking the frosting rather than decorating (a common theme with these two through most of the activity!)</div><a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEiVlIRB4ZQopGVvf3lVr9_EpGoWmCyw49oKHIDU6pPIbpg2VwgSmUK6m6_zsntOsQJXx5EwBMNJWIZan7c0o05eJgcGMg3FP8bK7HdABX0Y1fLt_khSltYN5GKppxkjfgcEvXWt53jRezQ/s1600/Girls+Making+Gingerbread+Men+002.jpg"><img style="display:block;

Marin was telling us about a young man at their school & showing us the video recap of how cute he is that she took with her cell phone (thank goodness for cell phone videos what ever did we do before those?!) I use the word "young man" because he is a junior so I would say young man is appropriate. <div><br /></div><div>Anyway, this 11 grader, who they say is a Taylor Lautner look-a-like and from the video he actually does look A-LOT like him (everyone at this point has to know that Taylor Lautner plays Jacob in the Twilight series) well of course all the 6th grader girls (aka Marin & her friends) think he is just the cutest thing since...well...Taylor himself. So she was telling us about him and how they all like to swoon over him (completely innocently, it is so fun to listen to my daughter with her first "crush") and of course telling us how amazing he must be, etc. Then the conversation got more interesting...it went something like this:</div><div><br /></div><div>Mom - "Marin did you ever take into consideration that maybe he isn't that nice of a boy?"</div><div><br /></div><div>Marin - "No way mom. He's really nice. I know because he was in the talent show with me last year" </div><div><br /></div><div>Megan - With COMPLETE AND TOTAL sarcasm in her voice "Of course you know him...because your act followed his in the show" then as she laughed at her own sense of "good humor" she added a smirk for good measure.</div><div><br /></div><div>Mark - Again with fun loving COMPLETE sarcasm (I'm noticing a trend of sarcasm here...maybe we should work on that) "Of course he must be nice because he's soooo good looking, all good looking people are nice."</div><div><br /></div><div>Next was the best part....</div><div><br /></div><div>Morgan - Without hesitation she said "That's right dad, look at you! Your nice AND good looking! Your funny too!"</div><div><br /></div><div>Soooo sweet. She meant every word of that last line. Mark thought it was absolutely amusing (OK...that's my take on it...he just corrected me as he reads over my shoulder and says that he thought it was absolutely hilarious!) He got quite a chuckle out of it. As we all did. Man I love my kiddos, each and every one of them. </div><div><br /></div><div><br /></div>Kimberlyhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/16982500460012338528noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4442223899812812696.post-20756270596825735132011-01-10T14:24:00.004-05:002011-01-10T14:48:53.402-05:00Is It Too Early To Call Them Bach & Beethoven?!<div>December 11, 2010 - Marin and Morgan's very first piano recital. They have worked all year (Marin started in Jan. & Morgan followed in Feb.) and they have two times a year to "showcase" their talents. In March they go to a festival (which neither one was ready for this past year) so the next event is the Christmas recital. They were so excited (a little nervous) but they worked hard the last few weeks leading up to the recital and they did AWESOME!</div><a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEiMBiQMo0lWSdGBEv1t7YreAAdvFMLVH4s_yf2cyEfg_42MqmCTheVayYew7n-wXj-WRtElXc4dfwFRxHoIvDaAWhlWjaQfiCESwPtbT1l8pDXSo1-VtEsouqISnBpv5TmOKXgq1qFIQkg/s1600/Marin+%2526+Morgan%2527s+Piano+Recital+001.jpg"><img style="display:block; margin:0px auto 10px; text-align:center;cursor:pointer; cursor:hand;width: 400px; height: 267px;" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEiMBiQMo0lWSdGBEv1t7YreAAdvFMLVH4s_yf2cyEfg_42MqmCTheVayYew7n-wXj-WRtElXc4dfwFRxHoIvDaAWhlWjaQfiCESwPtbT1l8pDXSo1-VtEsouqISnBpv5TmOKXgq1qFIQkg/s400/Marin+%2526+Morgan%2527s+Piano+Recital+001.jpg" border="0" alt="" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5560642520936032930" /></a>Marin & Morgan getting in a quick practice (to get a feel for a different piano) before their recital started.<br /><a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgSCsSnomsZ5ffISkkvvwNkOYle2F9qrUdvqAOLS841SQmVG2BKhdTEhOwhXzRXHZt1iyZWIJoytPHXI6hx8v7s8ACCfSJsHr008_x3H2E17-rdAGiV0tSDIWmr57CIb7Kg2p8QWwi2fyc/s1600/Marin+%2526+Morgan%2527s+Piano+Recital+002.jpg"><img style="display:block; margin:0px auto 10px; text-align:center;cursor:pointer; cursor:hand;width: 400px; height: 267px;" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgSCsSnomsZ5ffISkkvvwNkOYle2F9qrUdvqAOLS841SQmVG2BKhdTEhOwhXzRXHZt1iyZWIJoytPHXI6hx8v7s8ACCfSJsHr008_x3H2E17-rdAGiV0tSDIWmr57CIb7Kg2p8QWwi2fyc/s400/Marin+%2526+Morgan%2527s+Piano+Recital+002.jpg" border="0" alt="" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5560642512816212834" /></a>Meg was by their side the whole time...she can't wait till it's her turn to start playing! <br /><a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgB61_ZDD2rS6QKRNtaIHi8SUVsJzbByWSw1C3RtZmsREbI9Yrtg9Xqs7wArLDejXJ6MfrgU3LKsfixJxqmFiQgBMe8dI1a1fcNdIFJ31uP1cFHlUCu1zIecnhs0j7R5dOF_LXjXzMWAAg/s1600/Marin+%2526+Morgan%2527s+Piano+Recital+004.jpg"><img style="display:block; margin:0px auto 10px; text-align:center;cursor:pointer; cursor:hand;width: 400px; height: 267px;" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgB61_ZDD2rS6QKRNtaIHi8SUVsJzbByWSw1C3RtZmsREbI9Yrtg9Xqs7wArLDejXJ6MfrgU3LKsfixJxqmFiQgBMe8dI1a1fcNdIFJ31uP1cFHlUCu1zIecnhs0j7R5dOF_LXjXzMWAAg/s400/Marin+%2526+Morgan%2527s+Piano+Recital+004.jpg" border="0" alt="" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5560642270405331922" /></a>Not sure why we didn't take any pictures while they were actually performing but neither one of us thought to pick up the camera (Boo hiss...bad parents...) we must have been so completely mesmerized by how AMAZING they did on their pieces!

She probably asks me everyday at least a half a dozen times...we have a great swing in our backyard that Mark attached to one of our trees. The only problem is that because the trees branch only had one space where the swing would be level (anyone that knows my man knows that all things done must be done well...so there's no hanging a second swing from a unleveled branch) so even though we have a "baby swing" and a "big kid swing" we have to detach one and put up the other when swinging kiddos. Which for all those that know me...this process is waaaayyy to much of a pain in the backside. So on this day we put the baby swing up and let Mckinley get the first turn (since she's usually the one who goes without a turn since I HATE changing out the swings...) and boy did she absolutely LOVE it!</div><a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgz9DDHkLh966oKKidXRDh8bZAE99iY8KRz8HmQRW0_1DNl7ZV-lueKB_s7hv8jCnMuXXe6sA2Pp4sC4LuQky1UYBJXh6pa5TRgaNQn7mZNFTuakjZTc4bUpHitMT7R0eGx980dKkU-Xng/s1600/Macy+%2526+Mckinley+Swinging+004.jpg"><img style="display:block; margin:0px auto 10px; text-align:center;cursor:pointer; cursor:hand;width: 267px; height: 400px;" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgz9DDHkLh966oKKidXRDh8bZAE99iY8KRz8HmQRW0_1DNl7ZV-lueKB_s7hv8jCnMuXXe6sA2Pp4sC4LuQky1UYBJXh6pa5TRgaNQn7mZNFTuakjZTc4bUpHitMT7R0eGx980dKkU-Xng/s400/Macy+%2526+Mckinley+Swinging+004.jpg" border="0" alt="" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5560625325421794674" /></a>She LOVES that Mark will pushes her so high!

With their pillows and blankets they groggily started asking us where we were going? </div><a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEg_u7eyLBqEvDTxuTuTyvO4EwxTvk2Lbw6O6jjf_8EEvKjrjXRvDwjHDa5dhEfhCuu9YW8EKxDDVvY9wWXbFRVrlAEw1GeDMCMYgXP55yAAVMb9n2iYtNPP7k5NGlKXx22ZyCGmz2_omNY/s1600/Give+a+Day-Get+a+Day+Disney+Trip+003.JPG"><img style="display:block; margin:0px auto 10px; text-align:center;cursor:pointer; cursor:hand;width: 400px; height: 267px;" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEg_u7eyLBqEvDTxuTuTyvO4EwxTvk2Lbw6O6jjf_8EEvKjrjXRvDwjHDa5dhEfhCuu9YW8EKxDDVvY9wWXbFRVrlAEw1GeDMCMYgXP55yAAVMb9n2iYtNPP7k5NGlKXx22ZyCGmz2_omNY/s400/Give+a+Day-Get+a+Day+Disney+Trip+003.JPG" border="0" alt="" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5559913453258636386" /></a>Mark & I played it off as no big deal, stopping to get some breakfast, jamming to the music and just having a good 'ol time on the road together!<br /><a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEiDkBbXAuEwHLMqB_1s1Dfy2HWtL7GU4KDo_ceoN7QCvicRwD2kxgl1SWvmQDVlyMaweGxoERjCeQMu1uC6QKp4fwF37Y0eS6PXxV32aJj4UFPYCqnP14NEEwybmUKt_P29WrojzTb-5pc/s1600/Give+a+Day-Get+a+Day+Disney+Trip+005.JPG"><img style="display:block; margin:0px auto 10px; text-align:center;cursor:pointer; cursor:hand;width: 400px; height: 267px;" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEiDkBbXAuEwHLMqB_1s1Dfy2HWtL7GU4KDo_ceoN7QCvicRwD2kxgl1SWvmQDVlyMaweGxoERjCeQMu1uC6QKp4fwF37Y0eS6PXxV32aJj4UFPYCqnP14NEEwybmUKt_P29WrojzTb-5pc/s400/Give+a+Day-Get+a+Day+Disney+Trip+005.JPG" border="0" alt="" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5559913445256460562" /></a>Then about 2 hours later (after many whisperings of where we were heading) they saw the sign!

After getting our tickets (Thank-you "Give-a-day Get-a-day volunteer program!) and riding the ferry over to the Magic Kingdom, going through security and taking a few pictures in front of the train station...we were in! First stop...pictures with Pluto! We have a photo of Marin (from her very 1st Disney trip at age 2) with Pluto. So to see him right off the bat and compare how she's grown was really cool! Before we even got into Main street we had seen Snow White, Sleeping Beauty, Bell, Goofy, Donald Duck and Pluto. It completely reminded me of when I was little and my dad would take us to Disney...all the characters would be right in the town square so you could see them when you first came into the park.

We always tell the girls stay looking at the camera and let the "photographer" get Mckinley to smile...they're all looking at me but she wouldn't so each time I would take the camera away from my eye so she can she my face. She looks at me and smiles but the minute I put the camera up to take the picture she would turn her head (little punk) it took...aaaahhh...let's just say quite a few "trys" but this is the one I was able to (finally) get with her looking at the camera and (thankfully) smiling!<br /><a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjPueLKXznAJMVT2DDdoJMzQj33fIW4agvb4aldr9pZELJkZ-0UKkCPO8N5FloNrMdZbZAjIVhXd54Q5dA1wmPLSXA34zkwIBXIHPsprEtl5ROgCvR9a1OqoOiuVN605uWBjNqQvTEOfyk/s1600/Give+a+Day-Get+a+Day+Disney+Trip+095.JPG"><img style="display:block; margin:0px auto 10px; text-align:center;cursor:pointer; cursor:hand;width: 261px; height: 400px;" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjPueLKXznAJMVT2DDdoJMzQj33fIW4agvb4aldr9pZELJkZ-0UKkCPO8N5FloNrMdZbZAjIVhXd54Q5dA1wmPLSXA34zkwIBXIHPsprEtl5ROgCvR9a1OqoOiuVN605uWBjNqQvTEOfyk/s400/Give+a+Day-Get+a+Day+Disney+Trip+095.JPG" border="0" alt="" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5559901244321884498" /></a>This is the one that came immediately after because at that point I was snapping away and I also caught her turning her head...like I said...little punk-a-lishious.<br /><a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgHxyFEHRrbphyWnP9EpsGqzT84dMEJE5ZNsqXKg9EcH07eSAkTPEAlVLc9giY7e-z0A0guCvIbKR5xR6lFrOpxoDhhN8djX0C4ONChXp-u1369d0bpXnYlMrXQxVEUQDxTZZdmoKGiT1Y/s1600/Give+a+Day-Get+a+Day+Disney+Trip+096.JPG"><img style="display:block; margin:0px auto 10px; text-align:center;cursor:pointer; cursor:hand;width: 267px; height: 400px;" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgHxyFEHRrbphyWnP9EpsGqzT84dMEJE5ZNsqXKg9EcH07eSAkTPEAlVLc9giY7e-z0A0guCvIbKR5xR6lFrOpxoDhhN8djX0C4ONChXp-u1369d0bpXnYlMrXQxVEUQDxTZZdmoKGiT1Y/s400/Give+a+Day-Get+a+Day+Disney+Trip+096.JPG" border="0" alt="" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5559901240167219586" /></a>At the end of the night the electric light parade and fire works show helped us closes out what was an extraordinary day spent together.

I LOVE Thanksgiving! It truly is my favorite holiday. Time spent in gratitude. Time spent with family and friends. Since the head of our family was on duty at the Fire Dept. this year we decided to have our Thanksgiving at the fire station. It wouldn't be much of a Thanksgiving for us if we didn't spend it together.

We had incredible seats (not sure how we have gotten so lucky this year but out of the 3 events we've gone to we were able to be in the perfect "spots" for all of them) The American Revival was a few hours packed FULL of the most amazing information and speakers, all geared around our history as a country, both political and religious.<br /><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEg4hUxzLHD-BTUg_7C0zSHeRBMW8YOQ9Ny_Qr88bRd_dO_Qu5Ahr3jJN_Pn362kfTjFDgy2JvP6YZhX_nONjX8xasimK_MREKqvFHS1RUPsnjBlVSYpjYYaCZAjiRYvcSZkp0LoVjK30qM/s1600/IMAG0081.jpg"><img border="0" alt="" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEg4hUxzLHD-BTUg_7C0zSHeRBMW8YOQ9Ny_Qr88bRd_dO_Qu5Ahr3jJN_Pn362kfTjFDgy2JvP6YZhX_nONjX8xasimK_MREKqvFHS1RUPsnjBlVSYpjYYaCZAjiRYvcSZkp0LoVjK30qM/s400/IMAG0081.jpg" /></a> </div>Pat & Stew out in the audience.<br /><div style="TEXT-ALIGN: center; MARGIN: 0px auto 10px"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjJhIqUN_9HKHs32ZN2bijrShEaCCxoaT93kMZ3UifblUxmSqp4l7LXbHuTCFEJbYkTAtVEYo952bPgMvzCjJhW7XTZdFPfuv7e2sCEv7zrAjY24h6ov8VrYSDk8SPxHY3diUcV-FESdxc/s1600/IMAG0083.jpg"><img border="0" alt="" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjJhIqUN_9HKHs32ZN2bijrShEaCCxoaT93kMZ3UifblUxmSqp4l7LXbHuTCFEJbYkTAtVEYo952bPgMvzCjJhW7XTZdFPfuv7e2sCEv7zrAjY24h6ov8VrYSDk8SPxHY3diUcV-FESdxc/s400/IMAG0083.jpg" /></a> </div>Our seats were right where Glenn came in and out of the auditorium, this was the path that lead up to the stage. The photo is a bit blurry (sorry) but you can see Glenn's head 2<span id="SPELLING_ERROR_1" class="blsp-spelling-error">nd</span> from the stairs as he prepared to go on stage. Right before I took this photo he had been waiting in that staging area for the speaker who was on stage to finish and as he waited he was looking around at the audience he could see from that area and he caught eyes with me. <span id="SPELLING_ERROR_2" class="blsp-spelling-error">Mckinley</span> is who I think truly caught his eye, she was about 6 months old and was fast asleep in my sling & since my sling seems to be a "conversation piece" (as not enough people use them). He stopped to look at her in my sling then he motioned to ask if she was sleeping...I nodded that she was and then he gave me a look I will never forget. He placed his hand on his heart with a grateful smile, then kissed his hand and leaned it toward me and mouthed the words "Thank-You". It was the briefest of moments but one that I will always truly cherish. I know that Beck is a <span id="SPELLING_ERROR_3" class="blsp-spelling-corrected">controversial</span> figure in our society today (especially among members of my own family...) but having "moments" like this one and knowing that he is a member in good standing in the Church, that he believes the same things we do, that he holds a current Temple recommend all lend weight that he is a good, strong, courageous man who truly loves the Lord and wants people to educate <span id="SPELLING_ERROR_4" class="blsp-spelling-corrected">themselves</span> in our country's history. Not that you have to believe or agree with the things he says just that you will find out for yourself. That you will read, learn and pray. Sound familiar my <span id="SPELLING_ERROR_5" class="blsp-spelling-error">LDS</span> family?!<br /><div style="TEXT-ALIGN: center; MARGIN: 0px auto 10px"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgJm3BsAtcvPBiJWmL_c3NwD0dAce7YNkX-uxP7tKnDyYHjXoD-pJLM9ChqGTa4r1idURQfn13ZqZEMg2_suZLtL2QnzedBqkptllSwmdXZMUWRLrL8d5KBSkFuZVxF2bXgtqzEwTgPz8U/s1600/IMAG0086.jpg"><img border="0" alt="" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgJm3BsAtcvPBiJWmL_c3NwD0dAce7YNkX-uxP7tKnDyYHjXoD-pJLM9ChqGTa4r1idURQfn13ZqZEMg2_suZLtL2QnzedBqkptllSwmdXZMUWRLrL8d5KBSkFuZVxF2bXgtqzEwTgPz8U/s400/IMAG0086.jpg" /></a> </div>The Judge...He gave an AWESOME speech/lecture on the American Judicial system.

Those of you that know Mark know that birthdays are not that big of a deal to him. He's famous for saying "I'm just another year older"...but after being married to me for 15 years birthdays have definitely grown on him. Birthdays are a big deal and as such we make a big deal out of them! This year we spent his birthday at Nana & Pa's.
