HaPPy BIrthdAy RiCk!

It was Rick's Birthday on Saturday. We had a good day. He started it off with a brisk walk in the fall like weather while I stayed home and made pancakes. We attended a session at the Houston Temple around noon. Then it was off to Lupe Tortilla for an early evening meal. Brandon, Elizabeth and kids, and Bri, Jarod and Ike came over to join us. After dinner we had a delicious Pumpkin Orange (Birthday) Cake made by Elizabeth. We watched Utah, and BYU football and talked.

I think we have celebrated his last 38 birthday's together.

Brynley enjoyed licking the babyfood jar lid clean. She is so cute, she has Benz cute little crop of hair that likes to stick straight up.

Brandon's family probably should have stayed home in bed... they all have colds. We were glad they came though.

Jarod, Ike and Bri. We thought maybe little Jacob would be born today, but he must prefer Mom's Belly. Papa was just sure he would come on his birthday.

How do you quiet three rowdy children? Give them a peppermint and let them sit by the fountain. Ike, Benz, and Bailey.

If we all come down with colds this week , we know why. Too many sick candle blowers, but they sure are CUTE!
