Chad's Birthday

Monday, September 22, 2008 - We celebrated Chad's birthday today - one day early. When Brittany got home from school she decided to make Chad a story book. She got out some construction paper and crayons and started drawing and then even wrote the story. It was about Chad going to a Packers game and the Packers won. It was so cute and she did such a great job! She put it in a gift bag and gave it to him during present time.
We had Mom, Dad and Grandma over for supper. I made chili in the crock pot for the first time. Chad loves chili. I thought now is the time I should try to make it. It turned out good. Thank goodness for the internet recipe searches and for user ratings. We had chocolate cake and ice cream. Then Chad opened presents. Followed by Brittany and Nathan giving us a musical show in the family room. Chad had a great birthday. Lots of people called and sent electronic birthday messages.
