The Makings Of A Great Birthday

Today is Jimmy's 30th birthday! It seems like just yesterday we were in high school English class and now we're married with a child. Although we are not doing anything "big" to celebrate, it's the little things that make a birthday perfect. Yesterday we made a cake and this morning Nolan helped make breakfast in bed for Jimmy. (A toasted bagel with cream cheese that he helped toast and spread the cream cheese.) Today we will have a family birthday lunch of rigatoni, salad, bread, and of course cake!
