Happy Birthday, Daniel!!

Wow! It is hard to believe that it has been 38 years since you were born. I am sure that your "birth story" has been told more times that we can remember. Our tiny baby grew up to be a wonderful husband, father, brother, uncle and of course, son! We love you. Have a wonderful day.

Happy Birthday to our Oldest Son and Oldest Grandson!!

Two special guys share a birthday again this year!!! Have a wonderful day both of you. We love you and you are both very special.

The rest of the story ...

I'm afraid I'm a little behind on getting this posted, but I just thought I'd fill you all in on what happened last Wednesday afternoon after M & M spent some time spring cleaning with Papi and Mimi. :)

In their defense, the dishwasher box came from our house. But I didn't manage to get all the other little treasures captured on camera. Nevertheless, the kids enjoyed them! Don't ask where they are now. ;)

Happy, Happy Birthday, Donna!

From the youngest (Olivia) to the oldest (Dad), we all want to wish you a very happy birthday. You hold a special place in our hearts-- daughter, sister, sister-in-law, and auntie! You are the mostest. Have a wonderful day.

My very own "Sugar Cookies"

The Beginning of Our Week :-)

Monday night we were invited to the Christy's for supper. It was a fun evening-- especially watching Ed and Sylvia with the baby :-) Jana was there, too, but her picture got cut off the picture :-(


Then today we had Micaiah and Miriam for lunch as we do on most Wednesdays. It was special because we are finally having some nice weather and we ate on the porch for the first time in 2010! Then we did some spring cleaning. Fortunately for me, Micaiah is a great junk collector so our trash can isn't over flowing. Not sure what his parents think of it but he was laden down with treasures when they went home!

Our little man is 3 months old!

Happy Birthday, Brian!

We all want to wish you a very special birthday-- and we are sure it will be. How could it not? A new baby girl and a new job! What more could you ask for since you already had the best wife and son, right? Have a wonderful day.

Happy Belated Birthday to the Blog!

I couldn't help but post this picture. The blog is 5 years old in February. I usually post it, but I forgot this year. Here is a picture of all of us girls! I hate to say it, but I think we've all aged--graciously, mind you, but aged! :-)

Patience turns Nine!

Happy birthday, Patience! I know today is a busy day for everyone, but I am sure they will still take time to remember your birthday! It has been exciting to see you grow these last 9 years--double digits, next year! WOW!
Buckets of love from all of us!

Catchin' some Z

Papi and Mimi had some quality bonding time with Zacharie this morning during a spur-of-the-moment coffee drop-in. Caught it on camera, and so I thought I'd share it with you.

Finally ... the birthday post

OK, so I'm really behind on my blog posting. I'll try to go ahead and post now, though, before all the Bixby March birthdays start rollin' in. :)

We enjoyed having Papi and Mimi over to celebrate Miriam's birthday with us last week. Here are a few pics of the birthday girl and her party. Thanks for the shoes, Auntie Donna. ;) As you can see from the ecstatically spontaneous hug she gave Mimi, she was also very pleased with the dress from her grandparents. Just realized we didn't get a picture of her new Ikea kitchen as I was going through these pics. Maybe we'll have to do that in the future.
