Well it's official...Alan and I are OLD! No, just kidding....I truly believe age is a state of mind! We celebrated Alan's 35th birthday today (he's finally caught up to me) and we had a pretty good time. Unfortunately, he still had to go to work, and although I wanted to drive up and take him to lunch, he was too busy with stuff and meetings...so I cooked him his favorite dinner (meatloaf, baked potatoes, shrimp salad and jell-o!) and then we had cake and ice cream and BOY, we were stuffed! Only Al and I ate the meatloaf, the kids wouldn't touch it, but everything else was a big hit. Pretty easy to please and pretty easy to pull off! We kept it simple this year, and Al got a new shirt and pair of pants from me and the kids got him a DVD, a flashlight (he really asked for one!) and a bag of one of his favorite candies...black licorice (YUCK!) but he loves it! Hey, what else could you ask for except a good, hot meal, some cake and candy and best of all, six wonderful (but hyper) kids all around you???? Happy birthday Alan! You are the best and we all love you so much!

That's awesome. Your family looks so cute! Jason is having his 35th birthday in November, but we don't quite have the 6th child to go along with the good eats . . . yet.
happy birthday, Alan! Looks like y'all had a good time celebrating and Alan couldn't be surrounded by better kids and a better wife!!! We miss you all so much - we love y'all!
That's funny! Did you buy him some khaki pants and a button down short sleeve shirt? Did he ruin the other ones by mowing the grass in them? j/k. I just know how he loves to look good while he's mowing the grass! Happy b-day, Al! Sounds like ya'll had some good food! I would have eaten your meatloaf--Miguel hates it!
