Birthday Boy!

Someone turned 33 last week! Yep, it was this little guy! I don't know, it looks like he has gotten a lot cReEpIeR in his old age!!

For Collin's birthday we did . . nothing out of the ordinary. LAME! I am big on birthdays so I felt like it was a disappointment. And it wasn't even MY birthday! But there wasn't much choice; he had a full 4-period day with no prep, then practice, and I had to teach until 8:30pm. And even right after he opened his presents I had to go right back to scheduling group lessons and he had to get things set up for a tournament he had the next day. So, no birthday dinner or anything. We say we've still got something in the works. Probably during Christmas break when we will actually see each other for more than an hour before it's time to go to bed. I did make his favorite breakfast, eggs benedict. And he got some great gifts...including an iPod touch I bought off my brother and sister-in-law, and Collin (ever the technology snob) has been fiddling around with it LOTS so I consider it a success!

Another part of why we didn't do any huge celebrating is that Chandra, Lindy and I had planned a little partay a few days later, because ALL 3 of our hubbies' b-days are within a week of each other! HOW FUNNY. And weird how we've known each other for a few years and never figured this out before?!?! Or maybe I was the only clueless one. Anyway, we had these 3 boys and their families, and also a few other friends over for cake and ice cream and chattin. It was fun.

Helping put candles on the cake!

We are sure glad Collin was born on Dec. 8 way back in 1978! He is such a hard working teacher, coach, dad, husband, church leader, and more. We love him so much!
