Day 216

Happy Birthday Hubby!

Today is Rob's 46th Birthday...and the third time I've been so lucky as to share his birthday with him. And the third year in a row I've made him these delightfully sweet, yet slightly tart lemon cupcakes. They really are so very good...and summer refreshing!  I guess after three years running, they are officially part of his birthday tradition.

Mom made him a delicious ham dinner, so we went over and celebrated his birthday at her house. He did pretty good for a birthday boy...he got a new iPhone and case, a weed whacker/edger, and a little homemade ice cream maker...that Baylee and Lucy helped him open. Oh, and Baylee and Lucy were busy with the gift giving too - they got him some new Rosary beads, and a new water bottle.

It was a good day...a good Sunday, and a good Birthday. I hope you enjoyed your day Bean. ♥

Day 213


Tonight the Tri-Cities Young Adult Ministry met at the Cinco de Mayo restaurant in Kennewick.  Tom and Trina asked us if we would like to join them, because Bishop Tyson was coming down from Yakima to speak.

So after work, Rob and I headed over...and I was so glad that I did.  We met some great people...even some not-so-young adults, and some folks from other parishes.  Most importantly though, I enjoyed the Bishop, and his topic and talk so much.  After the crazy week I've had, it was a much needed 'reboot' of sorts!
