The Big 19!!!

So today was Garrett's 19th b-day. Yeah...19...not quite sure how that happened??? Well it did;). He had a pretty laid back day for the most part. Of course he did no manual labor. He had a few people over this evening for dinner, dessert and games. His dinner choice was albondigas. His b-day cake choice was what we call "Francel's Favorites"...a lemon, raspberry, vanilla and coconut cake, apparently this is Garrett's favorite as well. Unlike Victoria, he is not on sweets overload yet and wanted the sugariest cake there is.

I've been blessed by Garrett's walk this past year. It's amazing how many milestones you can hit in one year but he hit them with joy and excitement for what the Lord had in store for him. It's brought me joy watching him run after the Lord and His good works.

So now it's back to planning Victoria's sweet 16 b-day party next week but that can start tomorrow, Garrett still has 40 more min. left for his special day;).

But you are a chosen generation, a royal priesthood, a holy nation, His own special people, that you may proclaim the praises of Him who called you out of darkness into His marvelous light.
