Well, just as it does every year, Scott’s birthday came on March 4. He turned 33 years old. I tried to make it great and I sure hope I did. I think he is finally starting to feel his age because when I asked him what kind of cake he wanted he said ‘Yellow cake with chocolate frosting and sprinkles.’ Ummm, ok. But I knew he was really longing for his childhood years when I asked him what he wanted for dinner and he said ‘Corn dogs and tator tots!’ Ok! Easy enough!! <\/p>\n
Since I have a hard time knowing what to get someone for any occasion I brainstormed for weeks and came up with the idea of making a “card” out of stuff. Do you remember those? When I see you you make me SNICKER (and you put the candy bar there). <\/em> So the kids help me come up with candy\/food items and then I came up with a letter using those items and we went to work. It ended up being VERY long since I got so many things, but I think that made it even more fun! Scott had to take the van that day and so I sneaked over to the shuttle stop and put the card in the back of the van with instructions to look in the back of the van. That way he’d have time to read the card and enjoy it before he came home and got bombarded by the kids. <\/p>\n![\"\"](\"http:\/\/www.unboundpotential.com\/sami\/wp-content\/uploads\/2010\/03\/img_1009.jpg\" "\\"img_1009\\"")
