2008 Happy Birthday Allison
Photo-A-Day #1373

Today is Allison’s birthday. We celebrated by letting her sleep late. I took over watching Eva for a good long time to make sure that Allison had a proper sleep late morning.

After that the three of us visited with my parents for a bit so Eva could again astound and mystify my parents. She repeats everything you say these days.

Then we headed to Red Robin for a really nice lunch that made us all very full so we got home and it was nap time. I pretty much just woke up after being completely out for 2 1/2 hours so I have no idea what happened while I was asleep.

Tonight we are off to dinner at Joe’s American Bar and Grill and then to see Ellis Paul at Circle of Friends in Franklin, MA with our friends Michelle and Bob. It should be a great night. I’ll have to take pictures. 🙂

Chinese Birthday Night

Chinese Birthday Night

Tonight we celebrated Allison’s birthday. My sister Tara coordinated everything and even picked up Chinese food from her (our) favorite restaurant, Fortune House. She got all of the favorites including Sesame Chicken, Crispy Walnut Chicken and a couple of pu pu platters. It was delicious and our table was full. The table was full, not only of food but of fun conversation, family and friends (Trooper Mike came by too). I even came away with a few fortunes that I can work with tomorrow for my 15 minutes a day blog because they have Chinese words on the back.

After dinner we had an unbelievable ice cream pie from The Ice Cream Machine. It was a Peanut Butter Cup one and it was soo good.

Allison received some nice gifts including iTunes gift cards and a gift card form the yarn store.

The boots are made for walking

Eva even received another gift, some cool clothes from Auntie Shelby including some cute boots that my Father helped put on her, and cut off the tags.

Then we showed Trooper Mike our white water rafting video from 2005. It was fun to watch those again.
