The Birthday's

April 20, 2010

Greetings to all...

This was the week of the birthdays...Jennifer's birthday was Sunday, April 18 and Granny's birthday was Tuesday, April 20...she is 85 years old today.

We celebrated the birthday's at the Bambu Restaurant in Maplewood. Matthew and I did not have a melt down...I actually thought the food was pretty good. The hospital where Jennifer works is one block from this restaurant...so the Bambu makes many late night runs to the hospital.

Pat and Terry came to the party.

Pat made the delicious birthday cake.

Pat wanted to make sure the cake got

to the restaurant in one piece.

I love the duct tape.

This is the cake...it was delicious!

The children made cards for Granny.

Meggie's card...

Matthew's card.

Jennifer's card to Granny.

Our waiter...nice guy, very efficient.

The daffodils are so beautiful at this time of year.

The entire length of our fence has daffodils.

The tulips in the front yard look beautiful also.

Always out farming.

I have another busy weekend ahead...Julie is coming to Eau Claire on Saturday...we have the weekend planned!

Megan's Seventh Birthday Party

(click to enlarge photos)

Megan turned seven years old on October 23, 2008! She is in first grade and is still waiting to lose a tooth. Aunt Julie, and the grandma's and grandpa's got to together this weekend to celebrate her birthday.

Waiting for everyone to arrive.
When I came she was sitting on the fire hydrant in front of her house...
waiting, waiting, waiting.

Meggie and Granny B checking out her teeth to see if any are loose...
she does have one tooth on the bottom that is loose.

Jennifer made a poster that has pictures of Megan
for each year since she was born.

Time to open the presents...not sure yet what that iTunes card is used for.

An iPod!...from Grandma Deb...just what she always wanted

and I am sure needed. Every child needs an iPod...

A little explanation as to how to use the iPod.
Dad uploaded pictures of the family and also uploaded some songs...
so, she is set to go.

Uno Attack! Fun game...we played two games...and...yes...I lost both games.

SPIDERMAN!

Twister! We decided she can play that game with her friends.

ROBIN!

Matthew drew this picture of Batman. He is a very good artist for his age.

Cake time!

Well, Megan is seven! My how the seven years have flown by. I have enjoyed watching both Megan and Matthew grow. Both are great children and the next years will be just as fun to watch as the last seven. Great job Mom and Dad!
