The gift!
Beautiful Birthday Girl!!!!
My new tradition for my Mom’s birthday present is that I make a Halloween/Birthday crown!
Steven, Charlie and I went over early and surprised her with bagels and the makings for a Bloody Mary!
Her favorite bagel the one with everything and Lochs cream cheese!
LA JOLLA GROVES
Mom’s sister Marianne invited everyone to lunch to celebrate Mom’s birthday!
La Jolla Groves is a new restaurant that recently opened in the Riverwoods! Excellent!
A whole room reserved for the Knowles family! Love it!
Lynn gave Mom the cutest gift! I especially liked the Monster Marker! Fun idea!
Charlie’s menu! He was quite thrilled; usually kids menus entail a piece of paper and crayons! I think he felt grown up.
Brig and soon to be Mrs. Heaps! Yeah!!!
Abi and Charlie
A kid can get Mac and cheese even at a fancy restaurant!
See Brig’s hand sneaking Charlie’s French fries and when ever Charlie would get distracted Brig would sneak bites of Mac and Cheese!
Uncle Dave and Charlie! This is Dave teaching Charlie about Wet Willies……Thanks Dave!!!
Mom and Marianne!
Birthday celebrations continued!!!!
That evening we all went to Mom’s and made a birthday dinner!
Mom and Charlie reading Broom Hilda!
Charlie and Max!
Steven in the kitchen making sliders!
My darling honey!
