"Our birthdays are....

...feathers in the broad wing of time." ~Jean Paul Richter

Yesterday was Chris's birthday! Madelyn thought he should get the day off work *because* it was so! (Wishful thinking from a sweet 9 year-old heart!) In celebration of daddy's birthday...the children hung signs up throughout the house...



While Chris was at work, I made a yellow cake, if you click that link you will find a recipe..but it's a smidge different from the recipe I used. :) I also made peanut butter frosting for on top! Madelyn and Xavier enjoyed the beaters from the mixer! (Jaxson, still quite under-the-weather was napping.)...

X informed me that it wasn't right to only have four candles on the cake because "daddy isn't turning four, he's 32!" ;)

When Chris got home from work, we enjoyed a meal (requested by the birthday-boy-himself) of hamburger stroganoff over homemade noodles. Later in the evening, some close family came by to celebrate with some cake and icecream! We had a nice evening of chatter, laughing and celebration of thirty-two years of beautiful life God has given my Christopher. I am so grateful!

If you remember, please say a prayer for Jaxson as he battles this bit of fever and cold. He's had it for three days now and I am quite sure he is *sick* of being *sick*! :)

Just a quick stopping-in for me today...
So glad you took the time to come by for a *hello*!
Joyfully,
Katy :)
