Colby's Birthday



Yesterday, was my daughter Colby's 25th birthday. After having Addison over a month ago, she is back to work cutting hair. After work, Steph and I went to the beauty shop to give Colby a card and wish her a happy birthday.

Addison was at the baby sitter and Colby looked to be dragging a bit (this was her 3rd day back to work and she's still getting used to being on her feet for a number of hours). Steph got her hair cut by Colby, so, that gave us a little more time to talk and see how she was doing. Life for her is a lot different now that she has someone to take care of 24/7. This is a good thing for Colby - she's going to make a very good mom.

We laughed about how she acted when she was a small child and I reminded her of a vomiting episode she had at the nearby McDonald's one afternoon when I picked her up from Beaumont Christian School when she was sick (she was about 4 at the time). Needless to say, we will probably never be welcome in that McDonald's again!

Steph and I plan to have dinner with her and Addison Saturday night after she gets off work...I don't know what they'll talk about, but Addison and grandpa will have fun!

Steve,
Fun to read your blog. I have fond memories of Colby, Erin, and little Stephen (back then) ... from the Calvary, Independence days! Great picture of family. If you are ever in OKC, please stop in and see us.

Mark,
Great to hear from you and I'm glad you liked the Blog. How is your family - I would imagine most everyone is doing their own thing now. The next time I'm in OKC, I'll give you a call and we'll grab some dinner.
