Belated Birthday Wishes

Since I was forced to interrupt my MI Tea Tour posts with computer woes [I have since purchased a new computer], I didn't want to interrupt a second time to wish my youngest son, Jeremy, and his daughter, Isabella, a Happy Birthday on September 29th.  It's so special when father and daughter share the same birthday. Samantha [Jeremy's wife] gave him the best birthday present he'll ever receive when she gave him Izzy! Even though today's post is belated I wanted to share our celebration with them.

It's hard to believe Izzy is 11 now and in middle school.  Below is her 2016-17 school picture.


She had an assortment of birthday presents in her gift bag, but I think the expression on her face revealed she liked the outfit from Justice best of all.  She's growing up when she likes clothes more than girly toys.  Landon and Ellie looked on with approval.


Jerry made Michigan State Corn Hole Boards for for Jeremy's birthday gift.  They'll be perfect for tailgating.  As you can see in the photo below Landon's corn bag toss is in mid-air.


As Bill Murray says in one of Jeremy's favorite comedy movies, What About Bob?, below is a picture of "the fam".  ;-)


I baked a triple chocolate cake for the happy occasion.  Jeremy's favorite is Boston Cream Pie, but because of transporting it over an hour away I opted for a cake that would travel easier and wouldn't require refrigeration.

I love this family!

Celebrating Two Birthdays

Last Saturday [Sept. 26th], my hubby and I attended a double birthday celebration for our youngest son, Jeremy [36], and his daughter [our granddaughter], Isabella [10]. Having a child born on your birthday, is the best birthday gift ever! The celebration was three days before their actual birthday.   

Jeremy is the Athletic Director at Skyline High School in Ann Arbor, MI so he rented the swimming pool for the birthday celebration.  


The high school building and campus opened in the fall of 2008.  Before the birthday party got underway, Jeremy gave me a tour of the campus in the 'Gator'.


Dear Jeremy:
"No words on earth can be expressed
To show you of your worth.
Just know my son, I feel so blessed
To be your mom on earth."

I remember the day you were born as though it were yesterday.  What a wonderful son we are blessed with!
