Alden's birthday.....continues,
but will now be "complete". :)
The family gathered
(those available.....Steve at work meeting and Hannah in Central America)
for breakfast ~ just the adults!
(We don't get to do that very often ~
and we decided maybe we need to do this once a year at least.)
It was FUN!
Breakfast was delicious ~
and what a great time we had!
Much laughter.....
and lots of stories.
One of our gifts was "60 Things We Love About Alden/Dad"
We each did 12 things......
We did some laughing!!!!!!
Steve and Hannah's items were both read as well!
The kids gave amazing gifts ~
cooking class gift card AND special "letters" to him.
I gave Alden a "decade" gift ~
each bag was a decade of his life.......
Age 0 - 10
10 - 20
20 - 30
30 - 40
40 - 50
50 - 60
AND......a reminder of the fun and adventures AHEAD!
Alden was a trooper to be the "center of attention".
(not his favorite thing....but SO fun to remember all he has done and experienced to this point!)
We got some special pictures ~
Such a GREAT time ~
Alden you are a blessed man ~
we celebrate you this week.
We love you!
