Celebrating Birthdays

 Do you love birthdays?

I love birthdays and still celebrate them in anyway I can.

I have one son who loves my celebrations and one who does not...the hubs is good with whatever we do.

My youngest son is turning 41 on September 2, my oldest will turn 42 on September 5th.

For 3 days each year they are the same age.

Youngest son will be home from North Carolina today and he loves a good birthday celebration.

Here's one of the things I did...

I cut out these little strips of paper to put inside each balloon before I blew them up 

(I had a little help with this part).

This one pictured here says "Happiest Childhood Memory"

Another one says "Best Christmas Present Ever" 

All 8 Balloons have a strip of paper inside to provoke a childhood memory.

I can't wait for him to pop them open.

We wrote down what we think he will say, it will be fun to see what he actually says!

We got him a new cell phone which he desperately needs.

We always give 2 cards, 1 funny one and 1 serious one.

He does the same for each of us.

I covered the bed in the guest bedroom, (which was his room growing up) with the balloons...

I included a "pin" in one of the cards...

I can't wait until he starts popping the balloons, and to hear how he answers the questions!
