A new use for a chip clip and Mike's birthday

A new use for the chip clip!

My son was over Friday night with the four kids.
My husband likes to horse around with the kids,
especially Colton.
Colton loves wrestling and rough housing with his Grandpa.
Mike is careful with the kids---I'm worry about Grandpa getting hurt!

We all got a laugh out of this moment including Colton.
(It didn't hurt.  I tried it before I posted this, so I could be 100% truthful.)

Mike turns 57 today.
He left for Cincinnati on Monday. 
I wanted him to wait until after his birthday,
but he wanted to get there and get stuff moved out.
He just wants this move done.

So I sent his card with him.
I'll cook his favorite meal (liver and onions--that's a yuck from me!) for him when he gets back
along with his favorite cake (German chocolate).
He'll get his gift then also.

He's not a big observer of birthdays--guess because his family wasn't.
However, mine made a huge deal out of birthdays,
 so we meet in the middle.

Off to start my week of school.  Vacation is over!

  7. Happy Birthday to Mike!

    (And that sounds like something my dad would do. He used to clip clothespins to his ears. Now that did hurt!)
