Happy Birthday!!

This weekend we celebrated Ken and Jacob's birthdays. Ken turned 40!! His folks say that turning 40 isn't so bad, it's when your youngest child turns 40:)...He still looks HOT to me:)...Ken's folks called from New Hampshire and wanted me to put something on the big screen at church for Ken and of course I was all for it:) He was quite surprised as he got up to teach and all of the sudden the Beatles "Happy Birthday" song started playing and he looked behind him and saw our sign...Hee, I love getting one over him:) Along with celebrating Ken's birthday, we are also celebrating Jacob turning 17 and just saying that makes me cry:(...It's so hard to let them go and grow up sometimes. I've been dealing with this in a major way lately. I know it's part of growing up and letting them go and become independent, but he's my first, so it's new for me. It's such a learning process for us all indeed!! We had a fun weekend full of activities and just being together, which is something we can never get enough of...
 
 
Ken wanted something a little healthier, so I made him a low calorie/fat/sugar trifle. Yummy!
 

















Jacob absolutely loves anything to do with cookie dough, so I made him this cake and added some chocolate chip cookie dough accents to top it off. After eating this one we'll be doing a little extra workout at the gym...ha!!
