Karsten's Birthday

Today is Karsten's birthday!  He turns 33.  I had to work today so we celebrated last night.  I was hoping to make steaks on the grill but it was too windy.  So instead, I made them inside as well as potatoes and veggies.  I let the boys pick out their own gifts this year.  Jackson decided that his dad needed a calculator and Tristan picked out a lollipop.  They also signed a card and helped decorate the cake.

 This is what waited for Daddy when he got home.  Jackson didn't think he could write "Daddy" on the card so I dotted it out and he traced it.

 The boys "patiently" waiting for Daddy to get home so we could celebrate!

 Karsten was very grateful for his handpicked birthday presents.

I think Karsten had a pretty good birthday.  We had a very nice meal followed by some delicious birthday cake.  He is planning on going to the Sports Show at the UNI Dome on Saturday with some friends.  He also got some cash from his aunt and Mom and a new mailbox from my parents.

HAPPY BIRTHDAY KARSTEN!!!!
