Birthdays

This month we celebrate two birthdays.....Deborah's on the 2nd and Grandma Nash's on the 19th. We always enjoy celebrating with a birthday dinner. This year Deborah requested "Chicken w/Raisins and Seeds " for the main dish with Razzleberry Pie and vanilla ice cream for dessert. It was fun to cook the requested meal...... When we were ready we put rice on each plate, topped with the prepared seasoned chicken. That was topped with grilled onions and the Raisin & Seed sauce. We enjoyed asparagus and rolls with Martinellis as our beverage. As an added bonus to the celebration.....Claudia and Rich were here in Alpine and joined us for the festivities! After dinner Deborah opened her cards and then we enjoyed dessert. She made me PROMISE not to use any of the pictures I took of her.....so instead I will put some up of Colton.

Here we have Colton enjoying the Christmas spirit by saying "Ho Ho Ho" to the teddy bear.



Daddy Dave is showing Colton how to love the teddy bear. (Oops! How did Deborah get in the picture?!?)





Colton is trying to see if that is a mask Grandpa is wearing!





Because Claudia & Rich were here, we decided to celebrate Grandma Nash's 87th birthday a little early. Bill & Valeria and their children met us at Mimi's Restaurant for an early dinner. Claudia brought dessert, including a cake with brightly colored candles for Grandma to blow out. Bill's kids were especially excited about the different colored flames from the candles.



We do enjoy our birthday DAY, WEEK, & MONTH! Happy Birthday Deborah & Grandma!
