Day Two Hundred and Eighty-Two: XXXXX-XXXX years young


My mom's birthday was actually yesterday, but since Pete and I were going to be home tonight, my dad and brothers waited to celebrate the event while we were there. After enjoying a dinner of Tuna and Noodle Casserole, Pete and Ben graced us with an absolutely wonderful rendition of happy birthday on the guitar. Then, we collectively slaughtered the song when we used our singing voices (okay, I probably had the most to do with that).

But as my mom blew out the few candles on her Costco carrot cake (that she purchased earlier in the week to satisfy a unique craving for the aforementioned cake), I snapped this picture of her celebrating one more beautiful year.

Happy birthday, mom! I love you!
