Having a family member have a birthday a mere days after Christmas and the night before New Years Eve adds an extra challenge. Everyone is partied out and you've already given that person all the gifts! But Jake is the easiest to please when it comes to birthdays!! He's one of those people that says he's the age he WILL be on his next birthday all year long. So he's been saying he's 38 for a while now but he actually just turned 38! We made him a cookies-and-cream cake, decorated, and the kids made his birthday cards. We had his favorite... Costco lasagna, salad, and french bread. The kids were super excited about cake and presents. We gifted him some new, fun family games, some Lego sports cars, and a new pair of Bogg boots for the winter snow and slush. Happy 38th Jake!
