Happy Birthday Mom!

Mom's birthday just always seems to land right in the middle of spring break. In the last couple of years, it's given Michele a great excuse to return back down to my house for the rest of the vacation so we can celebrate Mom together. Today was no exception, we all met up at Original Pancake House to feast on amazing breakfast foods and center our attention on Mom (the kids only partially got that memo - mine were a bit busy arguing amongst themselves). We did take a pretty good group picture though:


Here's Mom reading her card. It was a funny card - suggesting something to the effect that the big obstacle on a birthday is not blowing out the candles, but rather not leaving boop prints on the cake when you lean over. It's something the three of us moms can relate to...
I do feel bad that Mom's next stop after breakfast was Urgent Care to get a prescription for a sinus infection, poor thing. However, since she just returned from Maui, my sympathy only runs so deep....

LOVE YOU MOM - YOU ARE THE BEST!!!!
