Luke is 40! Well, not yet. Next Saturday he will turn 40. The youngest looking 40 year old I have ever met. He refused to let me throw him a party so I decided to have a small dinner with family. By Saturday afternoon it had grown a little bit which was wonderful, especially for the girls who had lots of kids to play with.
Lillian always finds the bubbles.
I am pretty sure that there is a weight limit on the jeep. And there were horns too, thanks to Susan!
Here it is. You will never see this again. Luke wearing a birthday hat AND smiling.
Lots of good smiles :)
The only reason Luke tolerated any of this was because he knew he would get a red velvet cake from his mom. It is his most favorite thing. He even had some for breakfast this morning.
As some of you may know, it is very hard to buy a gift for Luke. His Mom and Dad always come up with a creative way to give him a gift that he will keep, and not return. This gift took the (birthday) cake. They gave him a money tree, Luke's birthday wish for 40 years, a tree that grows money! It is a blackberry bush with $10 bills clipped to it and a very clever poem. Was the perfect gift for Luke and I can't wait to plant it in the backyard and see what it produces this summer!
Happy Birthday, Luke!
