Birthday Boys

September is a big month for birthdays.  Doug and Jack both had one, as well as my Dad, Mom, sister-in-law, and uncle. Let's start with Doug's. From these pictures it looks like his birthday was rather uneventful,

But on the contrary I'd say it was one of the most eventful birthdays he has ever had.  To make a long story short, he took the scouts camping that day.  They had grand plans to boat to an island in the river to camp and fish. They got as far as setting up their tents and fishing for an hour before the rain began.  A drizzle turned into a deluge that just wouldn't quit so they ended up abandoning their site and coming home.  I picked up 7 drenched and shivering guys that night at 9:30.  We had a more official celebration the next day after everything had calmed down a bit. We celebrated with Mango Key Lime pie.

Next up was Jack's birthday yesterday.  He woke up bright and early and opened a few presents before school.  


Strawberry filled Crepes for breakfast at his request.

He didn't want to have to go to school but it was an early release day and I came and picked him up for a quick trip to Subway for lunch so it really wasn't too bad.

More presents after school with the older kids this time


Then it was off to scouts and mutual where Jack recieved his Wolf patch. At long last we came home and had dessert.  Jack really wanted a cherry pie.

 He told me this was the "best birthday ever"!!! Yay!

Jack's sweet primary teacher brought him over a huge cookie for his birthday tonight.


Happy birthday Jack and Doug. We love you!!
