happy birthday mom

yesterday was my mom's birthday. Isn't she cute? we had her and my dad over for dinner and some cake. nothing fancy, just a normal meal around here with a couple added guests. i fixed a turkey skillet with fried rice and vegetables, and homemade bread sticks. then later we had a coconut cream cake.
               we had some silly time along the way. olivia went around taking some pictures of everyone. this is my dad.

"give me that paci!"
















ewwwwww!




















                        not sure what amanda is doing here. i think she is talking to josiah and rachel on skype across the table. LOL


cute outfit josiah!


the cake is always jacob's favorite part of birthdays
mmmmmmmmmmm!

ooops! not this time! he did not like the coconut in the frosting. LOL
                  gross! sorry!


happy birthday mom! we love you!

    There's sure a strong resemblance in Mom and her "girls". I'm thinking she's one proud mama as well!

    What fun! Blessings,
    Kathleen

    Looks like some really fun times! Coconut isn't a favorite around here either. I think I'm the only one who likes it.
