Birthday Week

 Birthday Week 2020!

Birthday week always starts out with Lulu.  She had it all planned out.  We were going to open presents in the morning and eat donuts for breakfast.  After church we'd head over to Grandma and Grandpa's house for grilled hamburgers and hotdogs.  But then she got sick and it ruined all her plans.  She still woke up and opened her presents but she wasn't feeling well enough to eat a donut.  Then she stayed home from church and had to miss the dinner that she planned at Grandma's house.  We decided to wait until the next day to eat the cake she designed.  It was a chocolate cake with purple frosting, sprinkles, her name, and cookies and cream candy bar around the bottom.  She was pretty happy with it.  Good thing her illness didn't last too long.

Then it was time to celebrate Gennie's birthday.  She didn't have quite as specific plans as Lulu.  She just wanted to open her presents in the morning and she didn't care what we ate for breakfast.  For dinner she requested buttered noodles and meatballs with broccoli.  She didn't want cake but brownies instead with chocolate frosting and sprinkles.  I was happy to oblige.

Finally we celebrated Charlie.  He just really wanted to take a nap on his birthday! Easy peasy.  He really made it easy on me and bought all his own gifts this year.  But he did request an ice cream sandwich cake which I was happy to do for him.  It was fun to have three different desserts that they each planned out this year. 

Happy Birthday!
