Happy Birthday, Eamon

We had Eamon's birthday party at our house on Saturday. It was a very cold day, so we had to do everything inside. Jenni donned her Party Fairy tutu and organized all the games and entertained the little kids. They all seemed to have a good time. They especially liked the big bouncy thing full of balls that was in the great room.

Eamon seemed to know it was all about him and was delightful. He was so funny when he opened his present from his Grandma Kathy. He opened the box and it was three large white cushions. They were the inside to a little arm chair that had to be assembled and then covered with the cover. He had no idea what is was all about but climbed on the cushions and loved them. He was perfectly happy with them in that form. We had to forcibly take the cushions away in order to assemble the chair. Once it was put together, he liked that, too.

We had lots of great food and a delicious cake from Edgar's. Yum.

Finally, a job.

As of last Wednesday, I have a permanent job at Samford. I've been doing the job since July as a temp. It feels good to know it's for good now. It's basically the same job I used to have, but with less responsibilities. How great is that?
