Part of Jim's Father's Day/birthday gift was a smoker. I was just going to buy him one, but a good friend of ours offered to help him make his own (apparently it's better quality). Anyway, we tried it out for the first time last weekend and it was DELICIOUS!! The steaks tasted just like Texas Land and Cattle's smoked sirloin steak (my favorite). Mmmm, good! Honestly, the thing is kind of an eye sore (which fits right in with our backyard right now), but it sure does make some good food. Good job Jim! And thanks Mike!
I just have one brother and his birthday is 5 days before mine, so it's been pretty easy to keep up with him. Jim, however, has 3 brothers and a sister, and now 3 of his siblings are married, so the birthday's just keep adding up. My forgetful brain can NOT keep up. Anyway, I've been looking for a cute and thoughtful way to send birthday greetings to all the aunts and uncles since we've been married. Almost 4 years later I think I finally have an idea! My idea is to make a birthday sign every year and have the boys take a picture with the sign for whatever family member has a birthday. Then send the person the picture with birthday greetings. Then every year they will have a different picture with the boys as they grow and I won't feel guilty missing anyone's birthday without proper acknowledgement. I also thought that it would make a great photo album for us if we keep each person's birthday picture with the boys and watch their growth progression ...
