may 10 was Scott’s birthday!
he had a great day!
the little girls and i picked him up for lunch.
he came running out of school with the biggest smile on his face.
i was so glad to have captured it.
he chose pizza hut buffet.
everyone behaved beautifully and ate bunches of pizza and cinnamon sticks.
we sent him back with terribly sweet cupcakes from dillons (grocery store).
i had good intentions of making cupcakes myself but the dillons garden center distracted me.
we were there for waaaay too long and ran out of cupcake making time.
kids probably like the dillons ones better anyway.
in the afternoon i made the cake.
it went a little crooked and the frosting got runny but it still resembled a basketball.
thank goodness i didn’t try to make YODA like he asked.
we had birthday dinner.
opened gifts – nerf guns, star wars action figures, baseball things, legos
we ate cake and ice cream outside on a gorgeous spring evening.
the light breeze was too much for the candles though so we had to fake it.
he got lots of birthday calls all day . . . big smiles.
he was born on mother’s day 9 years ago.
that was cool.
i remember when i was in labor with him . . .
i asked for drugs and craig said “you are doing great – you don’t need it”
then the dr. said “you are almost done”
i did NOT beleive either one of them.
and then 5 minutes later . . .
there he was.
good memories.
right craig?
