Happy Birthday to all our May birthdays!

May is a busy birthday month in our home.  It starts with our sister, Judy.  Her birthday was on May 10th.  She's the oldest of us three sisters.  We didn't celebrate her birthday; as she wanted to wait.  I didn't celebrate mine back on Feb. 13th since it was a very busy time with our kiddos and school commitments.  Maybe we'll celebrate both of ours together this summer. 

Margy turned 14 on May 18th.  She seemed to enjoy her day.  She wanted to go to her favorite Chinese restaurant, Golden International, which is what we did.  It was a fun time.  She got got a baritone ukele and an instructional book with a CD, a digital tuner for her uke, some books she's been wanting to read, and a gift certificate to a book store.  She got some smaller items and we all had a good time.

Martin and Hammie both turned 10 on the 18th.  Hammie is three hours older and every now and then reminds Martin that he's the oldest of the boys!  We had a Star Wars lego theme which both boys are very obsessed with right now.  Hammie wanted Cox's guloush for supper and Martin wants Chinese.  Hammie is the oldest so we had Cox's guloush on the 18th.  We're going to Chinese tomorrow after church.  Having the meals on two different days gives the boys each of what they want.  To be honest we didn't have Chinese on the 18th because the girls were volunteering for their school "Relay For Life" on the 18th.  They were busy at the high school until around 8:30 p.m.  I had Cox's Guloush ready when they got home.  Hammie wanted a peanut butter ice cream cake and Martin wanted cheesecake.  We had both.

 Hammie got several pocket knifes, which he went crazy over...he's really into pocket knives right now, along with some Star War lego toys, a portable camping saw along with a portable shovel.  Obviously Hammie is into cutting things down and making new things with the tree pieces.  Martin got the new Wii Nascar game along with a driving wheel to go with it.  He also got a baseball and baseball bat, Star Wars legos, and some smaller items.

We're all pretty tired right now so we're resting a bit now that school is out for the summer.  Give us until after Memorial Day and we'll be ready to tackle all our summer "To Do" list.
