A Year Older

 We celebrated Mark's birthday this past week.  Allison was so excited for his birthday.  We had planned to go out to eat and get dessert at one of our favorite restaurants but when I realized Allison was looking forward to cake we needed to make one.  I made a gluten-free Strawberry Upside Down cake and it turned out to be pretty tasty.
 Allison insisted we use every candle I could find, including the number '1' candle.  She also bought a present for Mark with her very own money from the local lumber store, a pair of work gloves.  She had the guys at the lumber store well entertained walking in with her green purse, picking out gloves and buying them herself.  She was given a balloon and they even printed up a full page invoice for her.
We are all very thankful to have Mark around, he takes good care of us.  Life would not be the same without him!  We had a great time celebrating him & his birthday!
