Justin and Ascher are almost exactly 30 years apart. (2 week difference) So shortly after Ascher turned TWO it was time to celebrate Daddy turning THIRTY-TWO! Quite the difference in how we celebrated though. Justin has never been big on birthdays and so after asking 900 million times what he wanted to do and his response always being, "nothing" I finally understood. He really wanted to do "nothing." He wanted to lounge around the house and watch TV and be lazy and not care. Which for Justin NEVER happens. And of course, come Saturday morning he didn't do that either. He lounged around until about 9:30 then promptly announced he was bored. So we headed outside and played outside while Justin piddled around in the yard. Before long he had come up with a project for himself so he ran to Home Depot and got some concrete squares so he could move the grill off the patio.
Ascher was such a big helper. He loved the sand more than the concrete but regardless it was cute to watch Ascher and Daddy build something together. I can only imagine all the many more projects to come.
After more playing and piddling around in garage and yard/flower beds we came inside and despite my pushes of going out to eat Justin refused so we ordered Chilli's To Go and I went and picked it up for us. Whatever the man wanted I suppose. After eating dinner, we had chocolate cake and sang Happy Birthday to Daddy!
Ascher helped Daddy blow out the candles. We didn't eat any then...we waited until Ascher went to sleep and really served it up...yummy!!
It was another fabulous fun family day and I think that is Justin what Justin wanted. Fun with his little family, just being together. Sometimes those birthdays are the most special. Happy Birthday Bubby! We love you!!
