I feel like a Birthday party

Today is my brother's birthday.  He would be 24 today but he didn't stick around to celebrate. He had better things to do. I can't help but think what we would be doing on this day back when we were kids and he was still there.  We would be swimming all day and eating watermelon and corn from his garden.  We would all still be living at home with mom and dad playing cops and robbers, having rubber band wars, and not even paying a thought to what we had to do that day. I miss home and the days when everyone was together.  I can't wait until that happens again. I want to call a family day and go do something fun.  Maybe we could have some birthday cake and share our favorite memories.  Or maybe that would make us even more sad.  Who knows.  I think I'll go gather some ideas.

Happy Birthday Casey!

  1. I love this! Those were the days... never worrying about a thing. Okay, only what pranks our brothers were going to play on us next! Didn't Casey do the penny tapper thing?! haha

    Happy Birthday Casey!

  2. I know. I was about to write about his wild bday parties with all the boys- Ryan, Cameron and whoever else. haha Yes! They rigged that penny tapper to my room! The kid was inventive! I always think about the time we made a dance going down your stairs to that old song and made Casey and Ryan be our audience. hahaha I KNOW they were not interested. They were surprisingly cooperative.
