Happy Birthday Daddy and Jason

For the last 4 years there has been a double celebration on January 15th....in 2008 Jason was born on Matt's 40th birthday. This year we celebrated Matt's 43rd and Jason's 3rd birthdays. It was a Saturday, Grammy and Grandpa were here, and we went out to eat at Outback. Here Matt and Jason pose with their cake.
Prior to going out to eat, we spent some time opening presents. Madison is just about to realize that none of these presents are for her. But she is excited to give her brother a present that she helped pick out.

Jason is eager to get started.

Daddy takes some time to read his card....kids patiently waiting.

And he reads yet another card....made by Madison.

Daddy receives the Hines Ward jersey....and Madison holds up Jason's new jersey.

I was more than happy to wear Matt's "old" jersey for the night....Troy Polamalu. After all, it was also the evening of a playoff game between the Steelers and the Ravens....fortuneately the Steelers pulled out a victory.

The kids enjoy decorating the dining room with all the balloons.

Jason is very happy with his new trucks.

Both boys got to open their birthday presents from Grammy and Grandpa....new Diego bikes with training wheels.

And they enjoyed trying them out in the living room.
