Happy Birthday, Terry!
Okay, here is how the day was supposed to go......
Go cross the kiddies
Go to school and volunteer
Go to the tire place and get new tires
Go to the store to buy the cake stuff
Go to school and have lunch with my kids
Go home and make the cake, get everything ready
Go cross the kiddies
Take my kids to the library
Go home, wait for Terry to get home, surprise him.
NOW, how it REALLY happened.....
Go cross the kiddies
Go to school and volunteer
Go to the tire place....they have every tire EXCEPT the ones I need. Dude tells me he can have them to me in an hour
Go home (SHOULD have gone to the store, but I am an idiot) wait for the tire dude to call
Go to the school to have lunch with my kids. Tire dude calls me (mind you TWO hours later) and tells me the tires are ready.
Take the car in. Pay cash for all but the last 20% of the bill. TRY to put it on an account....lender wants me to REAPPLY for my account. Waiting...waiting.... I have to go cross the kiddies!!! So, since I look SO trustworthy and since I work for the police department, he lets me go
Go cross the kiddies
Tire dude calls and says everything has been approved, come BACK and sign. Okay, been to the tire place THREE times by now.
On my way home, Bren calls, he missed the bus
Go pick him up
Go get my kids take them to the library
Go to the store to get the cake stuff
By now, Terry is home, the surprise is ruined and I am exhausted. We eat the pizza I bought AND THEN
Terry and I go to the store where he BUYS HIS OWN BIRTHDAY CAKE!!!!!
Go home, max out on sugar, go to bed
By the way, Bev...he probably didn't get exactly what he wanted (wink, wink) but we did get him his very own Ute's Snuggie.
SO Happy Birthday, Terry! What a day!!!!

Check out that drink! It was pink lemonade with strawberry and peach garnish. He hoped it would make my stomach feel better. Just the thought made all of the difference! What do you think people, is he going to make a great chef or what!!!
Isn't this wild!!!!
I think it is a funny contrast between the green of the trees/grass and the white snow.
These are all trees from my neighbors' yards. I had to take the pics this way so you can actually see how much snow is falling.
Here are my poor lights getting doused! Good thing I haven't planted my garden yet!
I think today is a hot cocoa/fireplace/chili cheese for lunch kind of day! In May. The end of May. Right before June. When it's supposed to be hot.
His pool is friggin NICE!!! I don't EVEN want to know how much it cost.
The best part is that the water was set to the upper 80s. Oh yeah!
So the parents are up on the deck wrapped in our beach towels because the sun decided to excuse itself and take a bathroom break, or a whiskey break, whatever it is that the sun does when it goes away, while the kids were swimming in the nice warm pool. 
Very nice backyard!
Scott says its a work in progress, but it looks wonderful already to me. Notice his garden in the background....already in.....jealous!
Topher doesn't need a life jacket anymore!
We had a great time. After we left, we were feeling like we needed a BBQ. So we went to Red Robin at the District. While the food was pretty good, the service was kind of bad, it was freezing in there, and it cost a $%^&load of money for what we got. Probably won't be going there again. All in all, wonderful day, as usual. My boys always take care of their lady! Love you guys and thank you!

Nineseven!!! (a.k.a. Jerry) We had a great time and I think it was the best Jazz/Lakers game of the whole series (even though they lost). Great food, good friends, fun....what more could anyone ask for!
Jumbotron!
I love this pic. I love that she is the only one that has turned around. This was with my new monster zoom too, because I was WAY up in the seats!
She chose me (ya, ME) to go up and take her walking photos. The college didn't hire a photographer, can you believe that! I tried to do you proud, Andrea!!!
I tried to take a fast photo of her walking down the ramp but it turned out fuzzy. So here she is again lookin' good with some random dude behind her! At least he smiled!
Ever wonder where I get my smart ass attitude from? Well, I'll let you decide. Years ago, my dad promised my sister that when she graduated from college, he would buy her a car. So, here is said car. Vroom vrooom!!!!!
Yummy cake!

Okay, here is how the day was supposed to go......
Actually, poor Topher is so small for his age...wait, I'm sorry.... he is "fun sized" (his words, not ours!) that he just recently grew out of his tricycle. I hope he doesn't have to buy his shoes in the kids department when he is in high school (right Kristi? :) )
So here he is, cruising on his new ride! Now he can keep up with the older boys!
Not short on charm or personality though!
Just goes to show, great things DO come in small packages!!!
