Birthday -- What, Again??

Here's my "loot".
Christus on the bookshelf.

Unopened gifts with my cake.

As some of you know, at least those of you who are family, I had my birthday this week. When I came home from work Alan had made a roast for dinner. A birthday "roast". Do you think he is trying to tell me something?? He also baked a cake and had it setting on the table with a couple of presents. I always have trouble thinking what to get him for his birthday, but he gets thoughtful gifts for me. After we ate I opened a couple of good CD's. One was Mormon Tabernacle Choir's new one and the other a John Bytheway fireside. Also he got me a book full of missionary experiences. I wonder if Aaron would be allowed to read it after I finish? Finally I opened a big present that weighed a ton. It turned out to be one of those marble statues of the Christus. I've got it on the bookcase in the living room now. It was a good day. Thanks to Laura for the "Birthday Girl" birthday card. I love all you guys.
