Well, My Hubby is a leap year baby and growing up his parents never celebrated his birthday, Christmas etc... so when we got married our first Christmas was like he was a little kid.. OK, well Hubby is a Leap Year baby so TECHNICALLY he is only 10, each year on his birthday when it's a Leap Year we have a typical 8, 9, or 10 year olds party, He has gotten a bicycle, played putt putt golf with a Hulk (Marvel Comics) Party etc... I tell ya, he is SOOO silly and yet you can tell he is deeply touched. We all sport our party hats and all, this year his Grampa died right before his birthday so while cleaning out Gramma's house as she had to move the family got to gether and planned a surprise party for "Davie" and Gramma came too. She doesn't do Birthday parties at 97 but she did for Davie. He was brought to tears.... THAT is one of the special birthday things we do at my house....Kelli Hullhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03621831221811841693noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-38722506.post-71214992446404885602008-08-26T20:27:00.000-06:002008-08-26T20:27:00.000-06:00Birthdays are very special for our family.

I allow my husband and children to pick their favorite meal for me to prepare and they also get to pick the cake, frosting and ice cream they would like to have. My 18 year old son always chooses spaghetti and my 21 year old daughter always chooses chicken noodle caserole -- how funny. I enjoy being mom and making the birthdays in our home as special as possible.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-38722506.post-49116374578548811542008-08-26T13:39:00.000-06:002008-08-26T13:39:00.000-06:00My brother, sister & I have birthdays just 9 d...My brother, sister & I have birthdays just 9 days apart, total; not the same year, of course. Anyhow, every year my dad takes us all out to dinner on a day kinda in the middle of our birthdays. Now that I think of it, it's probably just easier for him to do it that way, huh? But that's okay, we all still enjoy getting together.kathttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01009010080640306363noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-38722506.post-58951899647064823412008-08-26T13:17:00.000-06:002008-08-26T13:17:00.000-06:00We always go out for dinner at the celebrant's cho...We always go out for dinner at the celebrant's choice of restaurants...then head home for cake and ice cream.
