Happy Birthday to Me...

Posted on Friday, February 22, 2008 at 09:36

I'm 13 today! My mom made sweet cornbread for breakfast, and I don't have to clean up after meals, I don't have to do my chores, there's no shool, and when I usually take care of the babies, I get a day off!

I also get to choose the dinner. I picked burgers, nachos and my mom suggested french fries from the store. we're having them with dinner.

For dessert I chose a chocolate cake called "crazy cake." It's called that because during the great depression people went crazy to make it because it doesn't have milk or eggs in it. And believe it or not, it has VINEGAR!

Also, instead of just ice cream, I chose root beer floats. After dinner I'll open presents. (Kyle and Kaitlyn and I said our gift to each other was the aquarium.)

I'll probably get e-cards from my aunts and uncles. I can tell it's going to be a good birthday! 

Happy Birthday!!!

Kenny, I can't believe you are a TEENAGER!! When you were just a tiny little baby as small as the twins I remember I couldn't imagine you all grown up, and here you are. Wow, do I feel old!! Your day sounds like it's going to be great with no chores and all your favorite foods. I'm pretty jealous of your birthday dinner, it sounds DELICIOUS!! I hope you have a wonderful day and I can't wait to see you when we all come over to celebrate the birthdays.

I love you!!
Auntie Becky

Happy Birthday Kenny! Just remember, that your mommy turned into a real handful when she became a teenager, so you owe it to her to do the same. You know, so she knows how it feels.

Enjoy the Burgers and Nachos! Sounds GOOOOOOD.

Happy Birthday

I cannot BELIEVE you are a teenager already! I still remember vividly when you were just two & living in Trenton, NJ. My how times have changed! Your birthday sounds like a perfect day, or "day off" that is. Now I just want a rootbeer float so bad I think I might have to make a run to the store myself. :)
Anyway, Happy Birthday and I can't wait to finally see you soon. I have quite a few presents stacked up for ya buddy! Hope you like'em.
Love you,
Auntie Cathi (oh & Uncle Jay, Patti & Dawson all say Happy Birthday & they love you too.)

Wow Kenny, I can’t believe you are 13. It seems like just yesterday that you were a wild kid driving your Mother crazy. Oh wait, that was yesterday. Hey do us both a favor huh? Stop driving your Mother crazy. I’ll make it up to you with a nice present.
