Birthday Brain Busters

Ready to eat!
Hi dad.

Mom thought I would sit still for a picture. . how silly of her.

I got a Valentines Day present from grandma and grandpa!

Thanks aunt Shelley for the cool shades!

Today is my wife's birthday!!! HAPPY BIRTHDAY, JODI!!! I am truly blessed to have married such a wonderful woman. Growing up, I was always taught that it is impolite to tell other people someone's age. Because of that, I will not be sharing with everyone how old that she is today. Instead, I thought that it might be fun for you, our loyal blog readers, to play a few birthday games and answer a few birthday riddles. So here we go!

Very clever Ryan! Let me guess...has she lived three decades and 1 year?

Of course, I vividly remember the day Jodi was born. A sweeter daughter was nowhere to be found in the entire world. One of my favorite things to do for her while she was a little tyke, was to trim her bangs. She'd stand on the toilet with a towel draped around her shoulders, close her eyes, and give me a smile that would melt my heart! I'd look at her and wonder how I could be so blessed!

Ah, those days seem just like yesterday.....so....there is no way she could be the age that your riddles suggest!!

Happy Birthday, Sweeeet!!

Jodi said...

How embarrassing. . my husband made all of these riddles and got my age wrong. Doesn't he know that after 30, you start going backwards?

How funny! Happy birthday!! I have decided to stop counting this year... I don't want to reach 30, so I will just "hold" where I'm at! Cody gets endless delight in reminding me how close I am. :o) Hope you had a great one!
