Since the camera was "missing" for most of April, we don't have too many pictures, so here are the ones we did manage to take.
Chris opening one of his birthday packages - salted nut rolls!!!
Opening his gift from Owen - a 365 day calendar -The Pessimist- and a sticky note pad tower from despair.com - they make Demotivators and such things that make Chris laugh. Beki's gift to Chris was his new phone.
One of those weekends in April, the marching band at Northwestern had a parade. We decided to head down and watch Papa at work. We got there a little early and found a good spot. Then Owen saw someone with balloons and we had to go find him one and then we came back to our spot and waited for the band.
Owen was trying to pass the time and was running around. He slipped on some gravel and scrapped his knee pretty bad. He was NOT happy and was very upset that I didn't have a band-aid on me. Beki had to clean out the wound with the water they had brought and then some hand sanitizer = Owen was NOT happy. The only absorbent things Beki had on her was a pantyliner - worked like a charm. Then we waited some more.
Papa at work with the director of the Marching Band.
Then Papa packed Owen all the way back to the car and Owen finally got the band-aid he wanted.
For Chris' birthday we celebrated with our good friends the Curtis family. Chris wanted a Red Velvet Cake from Costco, but we didn't have enough candles, so he got one of each color.
Beki did take Chris to Fogo de Chao on Chris' actual birthday. He took the day off of work to fix the computer so it would run World of Warcraft again and to go to lunch. Overall, we are pretty sure he had a good birthday.
