Happy Birthday Jamie!!

HAPPY 36th BIRTHDAY JAMIE!!!

Yep...he's 36 today! He was at a job site until almost 10pm last night and left again early this morning. Hopefully he'll be home earlier tonight so he can open gifts and eat cake! We hope you have a Happy Birthday - we love you!!

We leave for Vegas tomorrow - we'll be back on Sunday. He was originally going for just two days to meet a customer, but then decided to turn it into an extended trip so that we can go celebrate his birthday. Makena isn't happy that we're going out of town without her - I just remind her that she wouldn't like Vegas. (I mean, who would want to be in the sun...sitting by a pool...shopping...sight seeing...or enjoying a show??) Besides, she has school. : )

Makena made a cake for Jamie last night. It was the first time that I had let Makena do all of it by herself. (Yes, I know she's old enough...it's just one of my issues to believe so.) After breaking a couple of eggs, she decided that she needed an apron. And, while she was using the blender, she figured out why you are supposed to leave it in the bowl while it's mixing. (Just a little chocolate all over the kitchen...) Then...yes, there is more...she went a little crazy with the sprinkles as they came out faster than she thought. It all turned out tho and we can't wait to eat it tonight.
