Happy Birthday Joel!!!

So my baby turned 5 today. I've been sick the last few days, so it wasn't a big extravaganza, but the great thing about 5 year olds - they don't need it. We went to McDonald's for dinner (some place that at one point wasn't all that out of the ordinary, but lately is) and actually went inside (which hardly ever happens) and played "at the park" as the kids call it (which we NEVER do except on road trips.) I did manage to get a cake made, but didn't grease the pan well enough, so it was stuck to the bottom. I started to write "Happy Birthday Joel" with one of those gel pens you get from the super market, but ran out before I got to the Joel. But, I had some left over white icing. I added a little milk to it, the nuked it for about 10 seconds (it had been in the fridge), put some in a ziplock, cut a corner off and used it to write the Joel. So all's well that ends well. Enjoy the pics.
