But yesterday we had dinner at the Willard's, and today I BBQed some cheeseburgers, boiled some corn, and put together the cucumber salad Amanda likes so much. Oh, and then there was the big chocolate cake....from Hillman's of course!
Amanda thinks she looks awful. But I think she looks beautiful. Did I mention how much Callum loved the cake? He loved it SO much that now, at 9:17 p.m., he is still up in his crib, jumping around, crying for us, probably about to crash from a sugar high....So we have that going for us....
Callum is getting more and more brave by the day; he used to be quite the little scaredy cat. Actually, he still is about a lot of things. For example, he used to be MORTIFIED of the lawn mower. But now he joins me in manicuring our little yard. He even wants to help push the mower, but only if the motor is off.
Those damn John Deere's (right Uncle KK??)!! You always have to check the oil, which is what Callum is doing. By the light post, you can see our trillions of chives about to flower. They look great this year. However, the lupines seem to have taken a vacation for a season. Right in back of Callum is the red oak Papa bought for us last year. It is doing so-so. But they are slow growers anyway. Writing about oak reminds me....I need to call about some firewood soon!!!

oh see that the Chiemiego's could call Amanda right now and we wouldn't be waking Callum up!
In all seriousness though Happy Birthday Amanda and sorry we didn't call but Emma had a game right after work and they won so we had to take all the girls to get ice cream then it was home for a quick bath and finish homework. I thought about you all day though and hope that it was wonderful for you (besides always feeling sick)! I think you look great Amanda and your cake is beautiful, looks so yummy! Hugs and Kisses xoxoxo
Happy Birthday Amanda!!! I love Callum's outfit, he looks so cool.
Oh, we are thinking of getting callum a john deer mower for his birthday, we are all about re-gifts

happy 30th amanda.
I couldn't believe Callum jumping on the trampoline! What strong little legs! He got really high. Wasn't it so funny and cute when he was trying to do a back flip like Britteny?
Thanks for a great dinner, Jared. It was fun celebrating Amanda's birthday 2 days in a row. The cake was beautiful and very yummy, and so is Amanda no matter what she thinks. I just hope that she feels better soon so she can enjoy everything!
