My Birthday in Denver

My sweet brother and sister in law went out of their way to make my 61st birthday special!  This was the cake with candles my brother brought home...and we had it out on the deck that night.  But earlier in the day....
 we were hanging out in the backyard.  Remy was playing...and then when his Papa started to clean, he decided to help!


 What a helper!  Remy decided to sweep while his Papa was watering.



 His Saddie, Nanny, and Mama were so impressed with their little man!
Remy is only 17 months old...
but he's as strong as an ox!

 After watching his Papa watering, Remy decided he'd switch from sweeping to watering.
Seeing as Remy had it all under control, his Papa rested for awhile.
 The willow tree...well, it became something fun to play with!

 After sweeping and watering, Remy decided it was time to mow the grass.


 

 Well, he had the lawn mower under control and off he went.
We had to get him to stop working because we were going out to dinner...
to John David and Becky's favorite Italian restaurant...
that has superb Scampi...
for my birthday!
I should have taken photos of Remy's concoction he made in his water glass...
well, it's probably best I didn't...
readers of this blog might have gotten a bit...
nauseated...
 After wearing himself out working after we got home, (not really), he was ready for a bath (not really), so his Saddie gave him a hug (or she tried), before he took off for his bath.
I really don't think he was too happy with this turn of events.  
He just KNEW his Mimi was going to have birthday cake...and he wanted to be part of the celebration.

 It was a beautiful sunset on August 10...

  
The sun was down..the birthday cake came out...
and Brody came home...with his mama! 

 Brody got to sing Happy Birthday to me before he went to sleep...

 It was a wonderful day...and a great way to turn 61!
