April 3rd we celebrated Josh’s birthday with homemade hamburgers and all the toppings and baked beans. Dessert was strawberry cake. Afterwards we had a piano recital in honor of Daddy’s birthday. This was Clara’s first time to perform in our piano recital – Becca is teaching Clara piano. All the kids did beautifully. Afterwards the kids gave cards and gifts to Josh, and we ended the evening with the cake.

It was a hot day and evening, as we’re in the swing of hot seasons, but even so we all had a good time celebrating Josh’s birthday. We’re thankful for him and all he does in leading and loving us.
