Crab Cakes and Birthday Cakes . . .
Today was the laziest day we’ve had in a long while. Jan read, napped, and watched TV, and I worked on my son Chris’ laptop.
Our daughter Brandi sent over some more Landon pics. He looks like he’s thinking real hard about something.
We actually didn’t even leave the coach today until about 6 pm when we headed over to our son Chris’ house for a belated birthday celebration…mine. It was actually yesterday, but today was the first time everyone in the family could get together.
Our daughter-in-law Linda fixed a great meal of homemade crab cakes, fried potatoes, rolls, and fantastic salad of greens, strawberries, and coconut with a vinaigrette dressing. Really, really good.
After the table was clear, they brought this birthday cake.
First off, I was glad they didn’t put the correct number of candles. Some things are just a fire hazard.
I noticed everyone was still laughing, and then I took a closer look at the cake. And then I couldn’t stop laughing either.
Chris said a while back that, after reading about Nick Russell’s and my many exploits, and how close friends we had all become, that it was almost embarrassing.
So the result was this birthday cake. Even funnier was his description of explaining to the cake decorator why his father’s birthday cake had “Greg heart Nick” on it.
Oh, well, it was a great cake, anyhow.
Here’s Uncle Chris giving Landon his first fingernail trimming. Brandi said he’d scratched his face today, but she was afraid to clip his nails, so Chris gave it a try. I guess it was OK since Landon still has all 10 fingers.
About 8:30 we packed up and headed back to the rig. It was a great party and I really appreciated it.
More tomorrow…
Thought for the Day:
A computer lets you make more mistakes faster than any other invention in human history, with the possible exception of handguns and tequila.
