With Maria’s and my birthdays being so close, we decided to delay my birthday to the end of the week and celebrate her’s first. This made things much simpler with focusing on Maria. It also allowed me to celebrate my birthday without thinking about everything that needed to get done the next two days.

We had a nice meal of chicken parmesan, salad, and fruit salad. Clara made a yummy apple pie for dessert. The kids did gifts and cards before dessert, and then we had a slideshow. I was very thankful everyone was healthy enough last week to celebrate both birthdays.
