Beau is Older & Wiser

Beau had another birthday!  He's been pretty busy farming so we didn't get a lot of extra play time in, but luckily his birthday was on a Sunday and we were able to just relax and enjoy him at home for the entire day.

We were a little late to church because the girls slept in a little and then Evie just had to give Beau the birthday card she picked out for him.  I mean, the instant she woke up she was talking about his awesome card and there was NO WAY we were going to make it through church if she didn't give it to him right away.

The card actually has a pair of cowboy boots on it and when you push a little button they dance as the card plays, "Boot Scootin' Boogie."  Man, she thinks this card is the most awesome thing ever!  And, it truly is a fun card.

After church the girls helped Beau open the rest of his gifts.

Then, upon Beau's request, everyone took birthday naps.  Beau loves a good Sunday nap when he can get one.

While everyone was napping, I worked on a special birthday dinner for my man.  I made him ribs, corn on the cob, fruit salad, and sourdough bread.  It was super delicious and Beau was pretty darn pleased.

That evening Beau received some visits from various family members.

We enticed his dad and stepmom to stay and eat cake with us.  I made Beau an ice-cream cake . . . chocolate cake with a mint cookie ice-cream center.

Here we are singing "Happy Birthday" to Beau.
Evie may have snuck some licks beforehand.

Of course, Evie helped Beau blow out his candles.  They did a great job and I hope both of their wishes come true!

It was a fun and relaxing day.  I hope Beau knows how much we all love him.  He's the greatest!
