Happy Birthday (yet again!)

Whoops....according to Jen, I forgot to finish my post. That was three weeks ago. Sorry, my bad. Since then we have celebrated another birthday! Garry turned a big one-four and Bert, well...he's a a bit older than that:)
Both were fairly quiet. If all 6 of us together can be considered quiet.
We spent a comical afternoon for Garry's birthday at the local putt-putt. Although chaotic (3 of our golfers preferred to play simultaneously), it was great fun. By about the 13th hole, Aidan designated himself the "official ball putter in the hole" guy. Totally technical term, of course. With help from dad he got all the balls in for the rest of us. However, the 18th hole was not a fun one as all the golf balls disappeared into golf ball heaven. There were a few tears and bemoaning over the lost balls, but quickly turned to smiles at the mention of food...cake and icecream! For Bert's we did nothing, but I think he preferred it that way. Oh, wait..I made him wash the van. OOPS. We did take him out for a steak dinner and the kids excitedly announced to the server about the birthday. Although Bert probably could have done without it, the kids enjoyed the entire restaurant stopping and singing exclusively to us. I do want to send a special thanks to Kevin and Sara for celebrating Bert's birthday on the boat--WITHOUT US! So not sorry you got sunburned. LOL!
Um...looks like dad is "helping"
