Now, having my birthday this close to Christmas makes it really hard to decide what to get. Gayla always seems to do a pretty good job of finding me something fun for Christmas. This year, I didn’t even know what I wanted really. Having to make the same decision a couple weeks later was too overwhelming. I couldn’t think of anything new so I still haven’t got a birthday present. The kids did give me some candy and some jerky though. Gayla’s parents came to the rescue and gave my a remote control helicopter.

Jed always shows a picture of his latest plane. Here is mine. You can see that Scott was excited about this as well. He made me a landing pad.

We’ve had lots of fun flying this around the house and have only had to rescue it from the chandelier once.

The birthday crowd.
