Happy Birthday Uncle Brian

Today is Brian's Birthday! This is a great week for a birthday...first Hunter, Brandon, Brian, and then Me. ;) Of course that is day order definitely not age order. Anyway, Brian we hope that you had an amazing day, you deserve nothing less.
The boys had a great day at school and Brandon and I worked to get some things done that we needed to do, like getting new tires.
Thank you so much to Big 10, who was able to get them in and on today! I am not so sure that Sam's ever rotated them when we would take them. Of course there is no way to prove it, but we will see how many miles this set lasts. I am also curious to know if there is something off about the van that makes it go through tires quicker. Who knows, but I am so thankful that I have new tires, especially since I am driving on a field trip Monday. I have been seriously worried.
We decided to go to Top O' The River in Gadsden for dinner. This was my dad's favorite restaurant and we have not been since he died. We wanted good seafood and this is the best. Man, it was so good. The perfect birthday dinner, and we will definitely have to go back soon. It cannot ever wait that long again.

Happy Birthday to My Love







So today is Brandon's 31st Birthday, he is officially an old man, well until Monday when I turn 31 and Brandon becomes young again.
Since we are moving there were no elaborate gifts because we decided that the new house was plenty of a gift and that right now we needed to concentrate on getting all of our finances in order so that we are in a better place this summer.
The boys' were so excited to get up and tell Brandon Happy Birthday. They are such sweet boys and did not understand why he was okay without a present, but he assured them he had everything he needed. It was so so sweet and truly allowed me to understand what it meant to have your heart melt with a few simple words.
The boys' asked if they could give Brandon birthday spankings. We had to laugh and let them do it, instead of splitting it up they each gave him 31...32 if you count the one to grow old on. They absolutely had me in stitches this morning. It was a great way to start the day for all of us. A lot of laughs, loves, and memories! I honestly cannot ask for anything more.
The boys had an out of uniform day today, because we sold 8 tickets to the Spaghetti dinner at St. Francis. If you want to come it is Saturday and Sunday and tickets can be purchased at the door! Great food, entertainment, and items to be won.
Brandon had to work on his Birthday, but he is off next Thursday to celebrate. It was a good day for him though. The producer that he works with James, was out today because his wife was having a baby! So happy birthday to Baby Faulkner. Brandon says the baby is destined for coolness! I have to agree it is a pretty great day to have a baby!





The boys were supposed to have practice tonight, but they are fighting a cold and I am determined to win, so we stayed home. I was not sure until the last minute when it started to rain and I figured that was the answer that I needed.





Well, I am looking forward to going to sleep with the rain hitting the windows tonight. No severe weather just rain, which means I will be able to sleep. Hopefully I will dream about how I am going to come up with $2500. It would figure I would get our income taxes and pay off a good bit, and then when it is all gone remember that I have to pay the lake rent, get the boys stuff for baseball, and buy new tires. I thought I still had about 20,000 miles on them but it looks like it is going to be needed ASAP. We will see what happens. Praying for answers. You know like a check in the mailbox....that is not a scam. One can always hope right.





Well, to my love Happy Birthday to you, Happy Birthday to you, Happy Birthday to Brandon, Happy Birthday to you!!!
