Happy Birthday Mikey!

Today is Mike's 30th birthday! In about 10 minutes he will be 30 years old. He was born on Wednesday, September 6 at 3:05 pm. We were in the middle of a summer storm that afternoon. It was a LONG labor for even a first baby. The little scamp was posterior and they didn't know it until delivery. Once they fixed that, out he came in two pushes! He was a tiny thing at 5 lbs. 9 oz. 18 inches long, but didn't stay that way for long! Nice for me that he was small. I have small full term babies for some reason. Not complaining!

His hospital picture. Such a little cutie. Sleeping away.
Blessing Day. Yeah--this just proves we were young once upon a time!


Grandpa Davis always had a big board for hammering at his house. Mike worked hard to get those nails in just right. Check out his determination with that tongue sticking out! He was a 'lefty' from the git-go.


All grown up now with a sweetheart of his own! A hard worker, great cook, compassionate, loyal, kind, testimony, and tender. Love you, son.

Happy Birthday Mike!

(Mike and Adrianne came over for a breakfast brunch today at noon just in time for the BYU/Washington game. We had ham and eggs, hash browns, I made some caramel apple bread, and Adrianne and Christine made some blueberry muffins, juice and bananas. We have Stake Conference tonight and tomorrow, and I have to meet Duff at the church for the customary 'dinner' at 6pm before the evening session. So they are coming over tomorrow after their meetings and we will celebrate. Adrianne is putting together a UNIQUE gift for him. She's been working on it for a couple of weeks. Shhhh. Nic and I have been helping her. It is a surprise!)

I love the pictures. Did you scan those in? I need a scanner now. I am so hooked on Blogging. Thanks for your help today. Love you.

Hi Cindy,
Thanks for visiting my cooking blog. As for your question, I leave them on if they are new potatoes, because the skin is very thin. I also under cook them slightly, so that they are easier to cut into slices. Either way, they are yummy. I put ham slices in between the potatoes and the sauce. It's great.

Yes, they are scanned in, and then I'm slowly learning to work with them online and enlarge, crop, etc. A scanner is a good thing! Talk to you later and I'll help you some more. Love You too, sissy!
