Relieved

I am very relieved to have the taxes over with! Yeah! Now I can allow something else to occupy my evenings and my brain. :)

We celebrated Michael's birthday earlier this week since he was away on his actual birthday. My grandmother, then my mom, and now I, have a tradition of decorating the birthday table with things from around the house that have to do with the birthday person. This year the kids asked if they could decorate the table for Dad -- they decided tools should be the theme. :)

Michael's mom often made him "Mexican Casserole" for his birthday, so that's what we had this year.
Rachel made a little cheesecake for dessert, since that is one of Michael's favorites.


And then there were cards and presents to open.
And one little boy who enjoyed his piece of cheesecake very, very much!
