September Birthday's

Carter and I celebrated another year older at the end of September! It was a great celebration. The kids do such a great job of making it a special day for the both of us. Abi made "dutch babies" for us all for breakfast, a recipe she learned in Home Ec. Because Carter and I share the same birthday, this year we had a party for him on Monday night and we all went out for dinner for my birthday on Tuesday night. It was quite a treat! We have just loved having my brother Dave and his wife Kelli living here in Boise with us. It is so fun to celebrate birthday's and other holiday's with family. They are like celebrity's around our house:)
