"I don't want to drive up to the pearly gates in a shiny sports car, wearing beautifully, tailored clothes, my hair expertly coiffed, and with long, perfectly manicured fingernails.

I want to drive up in a station wagon that has mud on the wheels from taking kids to scout camp.

I want to be there with a smudge of peanut butter on my shirt from making sandwiches for a sick neighbors children.

I want to be there with a little dirt under my fingernails from helping to weed someone's garden.

I want to be there with children's sticky kisses on my cheeks and the tears of a friend on my shoulder.

I want the Lord to know I was really here and that I really lived."

OLD FOGEY!!

Steve's 30th birthday wasn't anything special! He got his present early (taking an introductory flight at the airport) and we didn't even have a real party! His family bought him an IPOD touch that he was totally stoked about and has spent more time on than anything else in his life, his sisters came over for pizza, and Maddie made him some cupcakes and a sweet card. We didn't blow out candles and didn't take any pictures of the birthday boy, just Maddie...ooops. Birthdays just aren't as exciting the older you get anyways, right!? Happy Birthday Babe...one day we will make it up to you and have a REAL party!

Maddie's card. She picked the stuff and glued it all on herself. She loves making cards!!

She had fun making the cupcakes, ate the tops off most of them, licked the frosting spoon multiple times and shared with everyone who dared to eat them!
