The Dean Family: Happy Birthday Mom

Well, it is the simple things that make us smile....my mom didn't want anything for her birthday except to celebrate with her family. Of course, she did want a delicious cake! (which she got because she (of course) made it herself. I knew, though, exactly what to get her and I have known for quite some time. She had borrowed my Rowenta iron a few months back and I just finally pried it away from her. Her iron broke a while back and she is a freak when it comes to ironing and wrinkles! She had yet to replace hers because she had been holding mine hostage forever! So, this week Lincoln and I went out and bought Grammy her own Rowenta and I honestly thought she was going to cry when she opened it! She was SO excited! I find it quite humerus at present time with my family. On my 19th birthday my parents bought me my first iron...yes, kind-of ironic. I was just as happy and actually did cry - I know, I am a corny nerd but I take after my mom and am a nut when it comes to wrinkles...another birthday I got my Wet Jet Swiffer...and another one I got my first nice vacuum....see where this is going? We love to get each other cleaning stuff...and stuff for the home. Weird - I know. Anyhow, I think that Grammy enjoyed her present. Now, I can iron in peace and not have to worry that it will be "missing" the next time I need it!

Happy Birthday, Mama! We Love You!! (Her actual birthday is Feb 8th. I will be in labor that evening getting ready to bring her 3rd grandson into the world!!)

Here is princess Shelby. She still is leary of CoCo and doesn't like to go over to Grammy's house as much as she used to. I think she thinks that she has been replaced...poor girl.
