December is a rough month for all our birthdays to be in. With Bear's UPS schedule in over-drive, it leaves very little time for us to spend together as a family. This year, we snuck in a quick birthday lunch to The Cracker Barrel and it was perfect. I don't need my birthdays to be big, but I get majorly bummed out if they are just like every other day and we don't do anything special. So this was super fun, because I was thinking we wouldn't have time to celebrate.
The bonus present was that River behaved magnificently. I don't remember an eating out experience that has been this relaxed in years... 2 years to be exact. Usually we take shifts eating, while one of us is running around the restaraunt with River trying to keep him entertained and contained... kinda like a rodeo clown.
I hope it is a sign of things to come, but it was probably just a birthday present to his Mama. Well I'll take it. I guess a good family photo wasn't on his list of things to give.
Nothing beats birthday cake, except FREE birthday cake. Makes it taste that much better, I promise!

I'm really glad your schedules worked out so you could have a birthday celebration even if it was lunch at the Cracker Barrel.
What? Did she just say "even if it was lunch at the Cracker Barrel"?!? I say, "Especially if it's lunch at the Cracker Barrel"! Nothing rocks a birthday more than an all you can eat buffet.
I hope you have a super sweet year 33!
