Jimmy's Birthday

A couple days before Jimmy's 29th birthday we went to Buffalo Brothers with Mom, Dad, and Daniel to celebrate.

It's always interesting trying to get a family picture...

Apparently Charlie was not up to taking more pictures...

Love these boys so much!

With Uncle Dan.

Sweet snuggles with Gammer!

I really love this picture of Mom, ha!

We celebrated as a family on Jimmy's actual birthday, December 17th! The day began with presents and lemon poppy seed muffins (which Jimmy got up and made!).

Jimmy's birthday presents. The white one is what Charlie picked out!

Excited Daddy!

The polka-dotted wrapping paper was Charlie's choice too.

Opening his digital photo frame for his new desk at work!

Charlie is always eager to help open gifts!

In the front of the picture you can see the gift Charlie picked out for Daddy, a coffee mug with candy in it! He was SOO excited to get this for Jimmy, and Jimmy loved it since he had picked it out. Charlie excitedly told Jimmy, "Daddy, it has candy in it!" Charlie also helped pick out a candle for Daddy's desk, and we gave Jimmy a nice box of Hickory Farm treats he loves as well.

Yummy muffins!

We all enjoyed breakfast together!

The birthday boy.

While Jimmy was at work, the boys and I went to get party hats that Charlie thought we needed, and I cooked homemade chicken & biscuits and a lemon cheesecake for dessert (both per Jimmy's request).

Wearing the hats during dinner.

The finished cheesecake. This is Bettra's recipe, from the Vanilla Wafer crust, to the cheesecake, to the lemon topping. I hope I did it justice! Charlie couldn't resist tasting the cake and left his mark (you can see where he poked it in the front!).

And this is a precious video of the boys singing "Happy Birthday to You."
Love you, Jimmy! I hope this is the best year yet!
