For My Birthday I Got: a Bird, a Skateboard, and the Cast of Star Wars
The Hurricane made me a boatload of personalized greeting cards for my recent birthday. Here are a few top picks:
 |
| Birthday Bird |
 |
| "I made this skateboard fancy for you, Mom, because I know fancy stuff is your favorite." |
 |
| "We are all saying happy birthday to you because we yub you." At first glance you might think this is Daddy, Hurry, and Baby, but that day my family was actually Darth "Mater," Obi-Wan, and R2-D2. As a special birthday honor, Hurry let me be Master Yoda all day. |
I also got 33 hugs, give or take (Hurry kept a running tally throughout the day), a fantastic chocolate cake, and a gym membership...to counteract that chocolate cake. Living here has been the first span in my adult life that I haven't been a gym-goer, and I'm so glad to belong again. All is right with the world.
Maybe I’m happy because I’m exercising more and feeling healthier. Or perhaps it’s because there’s babysitting at the gym. Most likely, I just sleep better knowing that the songs of C+C Music Factory live on in group fitness classes today.
Happy Birthday Hurricane!
Hurry had a super fun LEGO party with his friends this year. He loved having all the kids here to celebrate his birthday, and share in his love of Legos.
The party crowd (only missing Katie in this one).
Each kid made and decorated a minifig cookie.
"Make a wish!"

4 years old!
(This kid loves his frosting. I chose a matching shirt to accommodate his hands-on approach to birthday cake.)
Hurry and I made Lego chocolates for everyone.
Some assembly required
The Claw was a big hit at the party.
Hurry was excited to have unlimited chances to play after all the guests left.
"I winned, Mom! I winned!" He is thrilled with his 12 cent prize.
As you can see by the aftermath, it was a wild party. Thanks to all Hurry's little friends for a pandemonious fun time!
