We’ve been busy little birthday bugs
around here lately; baking, cleaning, shopping, preparing, and
planning. Lex is getting pretty excited and asks each day if
it’s his birthday yet. I made his cake today (early I know, but
it’s so cool and I wanted to have time for revisions if
necessary). He helped and picked icing colors and all. Then we
got a big delivery from FedEx and promptly opened it (fair
game, right Mema??) Lex loves his new table and umbrella, and
of course the box it came in. Thanks Mema and G’Tom. It will be
very handy for the party too. And I suspect we will do a lot of
picnic lunches this summer.
Alan took
today off to help get ready and just have a family day. It was
nice. I even got to sleep in for the first time in forever!
Extra nice! Now I have a few presents to wrap and then I think
I’m calling it a night. Family arrives tomorrow. Yay!!
Here are a few pics to tide you all over until
tomorrow or Sunday :)
Silly
boy in a box.
Cute
girl in a hat.
I have a
series of pictures of Alan and Lex carrying the picnic table
around the house. It amuses me because Alan holding the table
over his head like nothing and Lex was right behind him saying
“oh, this is so heavy! This umbrella is sooo heavy!” The
picture is cute but the memory is best :)
Someone
loves his new present!
I think
everyone loves the new present. Alan says this one looks like
an album cover :)
