Well, it's that time of year again...the busy birthday month! Between my husband and I, we have six birthdays in our family in the month of March...and none of them are even ours!!! With all kidding aside I really do enjoy all these parties and of course all the cake and icecream! Tonight we celebrated my mother's 60th birthday at Carrie's house. We had chili and bread for dinner (compliments of Jackie) and then later on we had yummy cake and icecream (compliments of Carrie and I). I can't even believe that I have a mother who is 60! Here are some pictures from the eventful evening...
I guess as someone gets older there are usually less packages to unwrap and more cards to open...which is okay, just as long as there is some "green stuff" in those cards! Hey, come on, I know you're thinking the same thing!
Mom's flowers!
David anxiously awaiting to have Grandma open her gifts!
Now the next picture comes with a little story. This is mom's reaction after hearing Jackie say to her (remember she is 60), "Mom, I can't believe you still have a mother...to be at your 60th birthday!" Please note that my Grandma Young was sitting in the very same room right next to Jackie as she says this to mom. Well, of course my wonderful sister Carrie has to comment on this whole thing by saying..."Oh, that's real nice, Jackie, you might as well say, 'I can't believe Grandma is still alive!'" Meanwhile everyone is cracking up and my eyes were watering from laughing so hard that I almost didn't get this pic...
Sorry, mom, I know you didn't want this picture on my blog, but hey, what are kids for?!!!
Notice the man to the far right of the picture...what in the world is he doing?! Boy, I feel sorry for his wife!
I tried to take a nice picture of my husband. I pointed the camera at him and said, "Smile, Honey." Well that's what I got! Oh well, maybe next time.

What's a party without this guy?!
I had to snap a picture of this particular gift...it comes with a story...and yes, my mother is involved in this one again! Zach opened the watch and was showing people, and my mother says, "Oh Zach, what did you get?" Zach replies, " a watch". "What does it do?", says mom. (I swear I am telling the truth!) In unison, Jackie and I say, "It tells time." Oh, that's our mother for you!!
A cheesecake just for Zach!
