i was so excited that i had my mom's present weeks ago, and it was actually a couple months ago that i spied a field of her favorite flowers in schenley park and took the pictures that i had made into magnets for her:



i also got her a notebook with my favorite picture of her with erik that says "world's greatest granny!"

our family went out yesterday to celebrate her birthday at joe's crab shack in station square (or as erik calls it, "station squarepants." we ate much awesome food - i got a steampot with lots of yummy crab legs and clams and corn and potatoes and sausage. it was SO good. i am kind of drooling thinking about it right now! mom was a good sport and let us have the waiters and waitresses sing to her and make her put on a silly hat.

a short video of the birthday song:
after lunch we let the kids run around by the dancing fountains and erik LOVED it! i got some cute pictures of the four kids.








i hope my mom enjoyed the day as much as we did. it was nice to see everyone again as it has been a little time since we've all been together on our vacation. when we got back home, i spent a little more time cleaning, organizing, and freecycling. we have a TON more to do, but i feel like i am making progress a little bit at a time. one of these days we will have a clean and organized house!!!
