Brandon's Surprise Dinner


Yesterday afternoon we headed up to Birmingham to surprise Brandon. We were celebrating 28 years together as a family. What a special time in our lives it was when he was born. There were six little girls awaiting his arrival. He was one spoiled child! He was a week old when we took him out to the soccer fields (located in our backyard) wearing his first pair of soccer shoes:) Many years later , he is a husband and father, and most importantly, a servant of God. His older sister, Katie, wanted to cook a surprise dinner for him, with a tribute to his passion for fast food:) She baked cupcakes that looked like hamburgers, and made McD fry containers with paper and markers. Absolutely adorable. Of course, she did all this while 6 months pregnant and watching her three ages 4 and under, and babysitting her niece for the afternoon. Superwoman! As we were leaving to drive home (soccer games in the morning) we had two chatting in my car window, and Brandon talking to his Dad in the other. We never have enough time together to say all we want to say. Good thing we'll be back next weekend to celebrate Miss Charlotte's 2nd birthday ( and Justin's 29th). Time to head out to do some mowing. I don't think we're going to be needing to do this for much longer...and praying for some rain to arrive shortly.
