Arroz Con Leche

We had a D and Y favorite today for lunch.  We had some leftover rice from dinner so we made Arroz Con Leche.  Once they knew we were making it, they immediately started in song:

Arroz con leche
Me quiero casar
Con una seƱorita
de la capital.

The meal also triggered a memory for Diego.  He told us that he was given arroz con leche after he split his chin.  He told us a little boy was chasing him with water in his mouth and Diego fell on the cement and split his chin.  After the doctor came and gave him a shot he had arroz con leche.  :)

Mike turns 39 +1

We started out the morning with Gretta, Ella and Dayne awake at 4am to make breakfast.  I heard them getting up and decided to join them.  They made Mike an Omlette before he headed off for early work.  So sweet!

  We sent Mike 4 black balloons with 4 candy bars to his work.  He didn’t find it really funny.

We celebrated Mikes bday night at the MooseJaw!  We had the entire basement to ourselves and ordered wings and pizza and pop and played games around the bigscreen.  It was really fun!  We went home and had cake and opened his presents!!!

Cant wait to celebrate both of our bdays in NY with Al and P!!!IMG_1917 IMG_1927IMG_1908IMG_1921  IMG_1910IMG_1914

BOYS and Monster Trucks

For Mike’s 40th he really wanted to do Monster Trucks with the Boys.  So he got tickets for the three of them and our brother in law Patrick and nephew Jaxson.  They got Pit Passes and toured the trucks beforehand.  Real Men!!!

1600 HP Hummer with 60 inch tires.
