Happy Birthday Tricia!

So today was my wife's 47th birthday!  This remarkable woman wears many hats: wife, mother, milkmaid, chef, homeschool teacher, family doctor, bill payer, clean-up crew, veterinarian, butcher, gardener, herbalist, launderer...  (you get the picture).  Today she's also wearing the birthday hat!

Getting ready to blow out the candle
Yours truly baked her a chocolate cake and iced it and the boys and I sang to the birthday girl.

Blowing out the candle
We took care of all the chores around the house today and did the milking in the afternoon so the birthday girl could relax and then we went out to eat in Lake Charles at one of Tricia's favorite restaurants.  When it came time for dessert, she didn't want any - she wanted to drive home and eat the cake that I made.  We drove home quickly and the four of us devoured a lot of the cake.

Tasting one of the dark chocolate chips I added to the top of the cake
Happy Birthday, Tricia.  Enjoy YOUR day.

Happy Birthday, Tricia!  We love you!!
