More Birthday Pictures

Just to continue Scott's birthday celebration, we had his choice for dinner on Sunday (his actual birthday) - Low Country Boil. Basically this consists of his favorite foods: Sausage, Shrimp, and corn, plus potatoes and onions boiled together with some spices. It was yummy, although not as good as when we make it at the beach with fresh shrimp and serve it with the taste of sea salt in the air.



His big present from us was a rock polisher. As I write, it is churning away downstairs, filled with some rocks that Derrick and Scott have collected for this purpose. I look forward to seeing them shiny and smooth.



We rounded out Scott's birthday celebration with cupcakes at his school. He asked for my coconut cupcakes with lime icing. The kids in his class are used to Publix cupcakes, so we got mixed reviews on the icing. But, Scott, Andrew and I thought they were delicious.

One tradition that I love in Scott's class is that they all had the opportunity to say something they like about the birthday child. This is actually one of our family traditions as well, but it was wonderful to see such a positive tradition in the classroom. We are truly blessed with a great teacher this year.
