share one thing we love about the birthday honoree.

Happy Birthday!!! We are the same age. What a sweet tradtion. Growing up, it was always the Carvel Ice Cream cake for birthdays (well, at least til we moved to the south, we do have them here now however). Birthdays are one of the few times a year we really try to get the entire family together (grandparents, aunts, uncles, cousins). And, everyone always gets a sincere card as well as a funny one.
