Dad.

Happy Birthday Mom!

I recently came across a quote and it reminded me of you..."It's not my job to be your friend. That comes after you grow up and are in charge of your own life." And you are truly one of my best friends...Thanks. Oh...and this post entitles you to one FREE movie night with the girls...I expect this to be redeemed soon. I love you!

A Tepanyaki Birthday....

Last night we had Jackson's second birthday celebration...at one of his favorite restaurants...Tepanyaki. He loves to watch the cooks...and all their tricks...and is determined to use chopsticks....

Happy Thanksgiving Birthday Jackson!

Yup...my little guy turns 7 today!

Happy Birthday Dad....

Happy Birthday Dad! I was thinking of good times we have had...and there are lots...but one that stands out...one of my most favorite memories of my dad...is listening to music in the living room...completely in the dark...except for the lights from the stereo...I know this is where my absolute LOVE for music comes from...all of us kids would lay with blankets and pillows and enjoy the music...and just live in the moment...Neil Diamond was just one of many singers we would listen to....I cherish these times...and I miss them dearly. Today my life is full of music...I enjoy a wide variety...and love to feel what songs have to offer...thanks for that...and I love you very much...

Yeah..it's the 5th and final installment of that birthday...

Brown Mafia....
Nope...no grandma here....

Peace out.....

Well...we knew it would have to come to an end...and we did have families to get back to...and reality...plus my cold medicine and several tylenol were wearing off...We had a splendid time...and we want Kris to know we love her very much...and we're here....ALWAYS....and it's okay....the walkie talkies weren't following us....

YUP...it's Kris' Birthday....Part 3....

The birthday girl's here somewhere....
she's so brave....MS does not define her...no way...

looking for holiday clothing..for our *maybe* Christmas party...
we loved these dresses....




So... once the mall could no longer hold our birthday girl's attention...we moved on to Target...to check out the latest fashions...Target Style...we learned it's cheapest not to buy...put the item on...take a picture...put the item back...it's totally free...and you own it on film forever...

Happy Birthday to our sister Kris..Oct. 5th..Part 1...

We took Kris out last night for her birthday...it was actually October 5th...but since I was sick...they waited for me to feel somewhat better. We started the evening at Cafe Rio...the birthday girl wanted Chuck E. Cheeses..but I'd already been there...Kris and I had the Pork salad...Julie did not....

Happy Birthday Baby.....

You don't look a day over 50....
