Happy Birthday Craiggle!







Friday was Craig's birthday and we had such high hopes for a great relaxing day spent together. Unfortunately, he missed his flight out of Cincinnati and so instead of getting home at 12:30 and spending the afternoon together he was stuck at the airport for 5 hours and arrived in Greenville at 6pm. I was just glad that he'd be home that day. The kids and I went to the airport with balloons to surprise him, unfortunately, somehow we missed him and by the time I got him on the phone he was half way home. We met him at home, but it was all decorated and the kabobs were ready for the grill so the party was ready to begin. The "earthquake" cake was another disappointing part of the day, but it did taste good. I guess it just was too warm in the house and the cake started to split and melt! Ooops! The expression on Sophie's face in the pic is pretty priceless though! Thanks for everybody's phone calls and to those who went in on the golf club. He's excited to go out tomorrow and find the one he wants. Also thanks to Derek and Rachael for that t-shirt! So Fabulous!

maybe it's the angle of the shot- or that craig is holding his head forward- but little sophie looks like a shrunken elf baby and craig looks like he's twice his normal stature! I LOVE the earthquake cake. I thought you did it on purpose. It looks delicious. happy bday craigo!!

Firstly, I think the earthquake cake is better than if it had been normal. And secondly, is there anyone that we can convince to get married so we can all get together again? Don't worry, no hard feelings about the footbath. And for the record, I dont have foot fungus!!!!! I believe I ate at least 6 of those cookies that day.
