Hooray!

You've had a Birthday shout "Hooray!"
Sunday was The Pants' 30th birthday.
We had a lovely day complete with ebelskivers for breakfast,
inspiring church meetings,
and a family dinner of mac and cheese and buffalo drumsticks.
It was such a good day I almost wished it had been my birthday!
I will, no doubt, be very uncomfortable one month from now on my special day.

I got creative with decorations this year.
I made this little "Hooray!" banner in the wee hours of the morning.
Now I'm realizing how versatile the word "Hooray" is.
I can add Easter eggs to each side and it will say "Hooray, It's Easter!"
Or I can add a rattle and it will say "Hooray, you had a baby!"
The possibilities are endless.
Hooray is a fine word.

Hooray! I get to spend my time with this good-looking guy.
I just found this picture. It's from a picnic on the waterfront last summer.
I was skinny and tan then.
Happy Birthday Mr. Pants!
Thanks for letting this post (and most everything) be about me.
You deserve a month devoted to you.
Hooray!

I knew there was another reason he is such a great son-in-law! He eats MY favorite potato chips. How profound!
