Alex's Birthday

Alex had a pretty low-key birthday party this year. Every year, he wakes up and makes a birthday wish and of course, I clear my throat and sing the loudest version of Happy Birthday ever heard.



We had lunch at Pizza Hut and then he and his two BF's (my word....alex would never say BF) were off to the Ramada for some fun swim time.






Alex was home alone the Wednesday before his birthday when his present was delivered from amazon. I arrived home and found the box re taped with scotch tape. I doubted that UPS would deliver a box with scotch tape so I questioned him about it and he smiled and said "I THINK there's a boom box/dvd player in there". Needless to say, he received his gift a week in advance.

The boys had a great time and as determined as they were to stay awake until midnight, they were snoozing by 10:00. It was a very happy birthday indeed!
