We recently celebrated Ken's birthday. He awoke to the lovely banner painted by his children and Scandinavian Breakfast in the oven. We sent him on a scavenger hunt to find his birthday surprise. At each location a clue was found taped to a different kind of BBQ sauce or marinade. The final clue lead him to the computer where he viewed the website with the barbecue/smoker class that he we are sending him to attend.He wanted to spend his day at home with little fanfair. So that's what we did. He grilled some amazing burgers for the family. Mmmm! And we had a scrumptious rhubarb pie ala mode for desert. Oh, and the children gave him a couple new blueberry plants for the front yard.
It was a low-key day; just like he wanted. Glad he enjoys being home with the family so much. We love you, Dad!

Sounds like a wonderful day for a wonderful son! A beautiful birthday sign, delicious breakfast, his loving wife and children alone to himself for a whole day ... what a delightful, restful way to celebrate 38 years! And I expect our whole family will benefit from his opportunity to learn new BBQ/smoking techniques ... although I must say we've been very pleased with everything that's come off his grill!
Love,
Mom
