It was so hard to get a decent picture with them standing in front of a large window! Can you see Charlie he is on the top row with the red cape and crown.

He was the tallest kid out of all 4 first grade classes….reminds me of how it was when I was a kid!

Mom’s birthday!

I don’t mean to be so far behind in my blog entries! 

With a baby I am surprised at just how much time flies. 

Steven and I surprised Mom with a birthday dinner.  We prepared it at his house and invited family over.

Birthday Menu:

Homemade clam chowder and chicken noodle soup.

Homemade rolls

Baked halibut (the way Katie’s mom makes it; so good)

Baked acorn squash

Lynn brought a green salad (thank you)

Black forest cake

Homemade Carmel corn

Lets just say cooking in this kitchen was a feat in it’s self!  Tiny stove and sink….but we did it; while learning what his kitchen was lacking in cooking supplies.
