oh I didn't forget...

even though the day was crazy with all the repercussions from the hurricane... we were still able to celebrate 
Scott's 27th birthday!!!  

Sunday after church (right before the big storm) we went to Mom & Jim's to have a birthday lunch & to give Scott his main gift... a new bike!!!
doesn't he look good on it?!
thankfully I had already made his cake & we had it a day early-- making it on his actual birthday would NOT have happened with no electricity!
and... still not used to my big smile... I look awkward!  But the birthday boy looks great!thanks for celebrating with us!

9.15.
On his actually birthday... it was pretty cool... I was bummed in the morning that we didn't have electricity because I ALWAYS make him waffles for breakfast... thats what he wants!... but I couldn't, obviously.  

But our friends, the Luechauer's called to invite us over since they had electricity.  We went over & I mentioned my bummer situation.  Without a second thought they had the pans out & they made us waffles & coffee!!!  We felt so loved!  And they made Scott's official birthday celebration complete.  Thanks guys!  

Of course we went to Brunos for dinner (see previous post)... still weren't any other options... but Scott loves pizza!  Then we had a meeting with the students Monday evening... they all sang happy birthday to him!  He opened his cards & gifts by candlelight when we got home :)   Thanks to everyone for all the loving birthday wishes to Scott!  

Happy Birthday my love!
