Greg's Birthday!

We have had a whole lot to celebrate over here. I'm going to start with Greg's birthday! His birthday was on April 24. We went to yummy Olive Garden on Saturday. Then on Sunday morning, I put up the decorations and made German Pancakes for breakfast. I then gave him is first present with a note inside that said...


"I figured I would use this gift that you know to go ahead and start the show. You see, there are a lot of presents that are not easy to wrap, but simply placing them in front of you would be crap. You must follow the clues both high and low. Each new gift of yours will be bright with a bow. (it's a treasure hunt :) " So he was off in search of his presents.





Kahlan even helped. He found them all, we went to church, and then came home and had lasagna and birthday dessert.





I made Greg a mint pudding pie that he loves, and my parents brought over a birthday cake as a surprise.


We all gathered around to sing happy birthday and blow out candles. (We thought this was so funny that Moira and Kahlan came over too. They did it completely on their own. It made for a fun family shot.lol.) I took a ton of pictures of Greg all weekend long, and how did he feel about that?....


More birthday posts to come!!

  1. Cute! You are clever - that's a great idea to have a scavenger hunt for presents. I love the picture of Kahlan on Greg's shoulders, too. Did you name her after the character in The Sword of Truth series? To be honest, I've never read any of the books, but I watched Legend of the Seeker.

  2. Yeah we did. We were so excited for the series to start again last summer, and we found out it was cancelled a couple weeks after we got her. We were so bummed. lol. We do have the first book in the series that we are going to read together... someday. :)
