Grant's Birthday

Grant is now officially a teenager!

He was happy to get his sliver magic card deck, the "Mist Born" book series by Brandon Sanderson, a Calvin and Hobbs hat, and a ring.

 He enjoyed watching the original Spiderman, playing video games, and hanging out with friends.

Birthday Celebration

Grant and I watched a documentary on 9/11

How hard that time was when America was under attack!

To celebrate my birthday, we went to Texas Roadhouse.

We ate and ate and ate so many rolls.
I think we each ate at least 4 rolls.

The food was delicious and the service was great.

But being with family was the best of all!
HAPPY BIRTHDAY!

Be Real Moments from August to September 10th

James enjoys doing BeReal with me, which means at random parts of the day, the app sends a notification for you to take a picture within 2 minutes, so you can show what you are doing in the moment and Be Real about what you are doing, whether it be happy or sad.

James and Grant love to play the card game, Magic.
