Kirk's 28th Birthday

Kirk turns 28 on the 27th but since we are leaving for Vernal today(to see his youngest brother get married) we surprised Kirk by celebrating yesterday! He woke up by me singing happy birthday and letting him know that "surprise, it's your birthday today!" We hiked up Mountains Edge early in the morning and came home to a yummy breakfast of crescent roll, ham, cheese, spinach, egg bake. And of course a couple of presents for him to open (Oreos, a new work shirt, and croquet). We kissed him goodbye and wished him a fantastic day at work.

After picking Kirsten up from school we went and picked Kirk up for work and took him to lunch at one of his favorite places Jason's Deli. It was delicious and super fun.

The girls and I spent the afternoon cooking up a storm. He came home to a yummy dinner (his favorite homemade Caesar salad an homemade rolls). Then more presents! A camelback water thing, milanos, energy bars, and skele shoes. He is one happy man! We went and flew his fancy kite (his new favorite hobby) at the park in the evening. It was a beautiful night and a lot of fun. The girls were little monkeys and spent most of their time in the trees.

 We came home and he blew out all of his candles in one breath, but forgot to make a wish. Oh well maybe wishes only come true on actual birthdays anyway! We had a fun day celebrating Kirk. I am so grateful for him, every single day. Love you babe!

Happy Mothers Day!!!

I love to see it turn to spring,
Where sunshine brightens everything!

Where birds start singing in the sky.
And people warm themselves outside!

Flowers blooming smells galore.
Children sing like ne'er before.

Yes springtime joys are always fun,
But reasons greatest there is but one.

A time of year to celebrate mothers,
A greater calling? there is no other!

That's why today we celebrate you!
No sufficient way to say thank you!

You make the difference in our kids,
I'm grateful for the things you did!

But as a mom, you were born to,
Take care of yours just like you do.

No, greater far your purpose here,
You've done this well to me it's clear.

You make me better every day.
By all the helpful things you say.

You make me smile from ear to ear,
When we are home our children cheer.

So nothing more that I can say,
But please have a Happy Mothers day!

I love you babe!
