pirates and birthdays!

I wanted to share something cute that happened Tuesday night.  We went to dinner with my parents and Javier, Stephanie, Hudson and Tenley. When Hudson saw Ellie wearing her eye patch he quickly handed out pictures he had colored for us and said pirate when he handed Ellie's picture to her.  Then he quietly said to Stephanie that he wanted to be a pirate like Ellie.  I thought it was so cute. I hadn't thought about Ellie being a pirate. Ellie didn't have any response when Hudson said he wanted to be a pirate like her. She doesn't think it's funny and it doesn't make her upset. Kind of odd to get no response from her about something.

Ryan gave me a card this morning and it was hilarious so I wanted to share it.

For my wife on her birthday.
The top 10 things I don't say often enough...

10. I hate to miss the game, but this floor could really use a good scrubbing.
9. Why don't you buy a nice new pair of shoes to go with that outfit.
8. Let's rent a romantic movie. If I see one more car chase, I'm gonna hurl!
7. Yeah, I'm pretty tired, too, so let's just cuddle.
6. Why can't they show real-looking women in those lingerie catalogs?
5. My thumb's getting tired. Would you mind holding the remote for a while?
4. I'm not sure we've seen enough family lately.
3. You got enough blankets over there?
2. Sure, I'll be glad to hold your purse while we're standing next to this construction site.
1. I'll love you forever! (and I sure hope you know it!)

This was funny to me.
It was nice to start my day off laughing!

I did have a spectacular birthday! I took the day off to pamper myself since I had some gift certificates to use up.  I got a pedicure with a friend Hannah, then had lunch with Hannah and Collette, visited Ellie at school for a little while then went to a massage! The whole day was wonderful. Ended it with a fun evening outside on this beautiful day with the fam.  It was a blessing to have Facebook today also.  So many friends wished me a happy birthday. It made me feel so loved and special.  Thank you all, everyone out there, thank you!

Happy 76th Birthday Dad on Thursday, March 31st
