Sarah was flipping through photos on the iPad, when she called me to look at a photo of Joe's birthday. Seeing the photo made me realise that I had completely forgotten to load Joe's birthday post to the blog. Here it is.
Can you tell that the 8 candle has seen a few other cakes?
This year Joseph's birthday was on a Saturday which coincided with Star Wars movie night at a friend's house. I asked the host family if we could bring over two cakes before the movie started to share with the other children attending the movie. The family graciously agreed and even provided candles, "Happy Birthday" and "For He's a Jolly Good Fellow".
Unbeknownst to this family (and to me at the time), I inadvertently asked them to host a birthday party for Joseph. Very sly mother. It was a great birthday party!
This is just a random photo from my collection of not awesome photos. I am single-handedly blogging old-style: fuzzy, unprofessional photos vs. professional-quality-Canon photos. The shirt he was wearing was a gift from my parents - an Underarmour mock turtleneck. If he can't play "real" hockey, he can at least dress the part. Happy eight years, Joseph. We love you to pieces. I want to write so much more, but, "The time! The time! There is no time!"

I can't believe you're organized enough to keep the candles and actually remember where they are for subsequent birthdays!
I thought the same thing as Rebecca. Also kudos to you for the sneaky birthday party!
