HaHaHaHappy Birthday

Grandma turns...you'll have to ask her. Some things you just don't reveal on a public blog.

"Mordida! Mordida! Mordida!"

In Mexico, after "Feliz Cumpleanos" is sung, all the un-birthday people chant "mordida, mordida" meaning "bite, bite". The tradition is, the birthday person is to put their hands behind their back and take a bite out of their birthday cake. As the birthday celebree bends down to take a bite, someone behind them squishes their face into the cake.

James decided to take on the "Mordida".

While we've been vacationing, Christian has been slaving away at the old homestead. We will be returning to a changed yard. If you want to see the progress, you can check it out here. Suffce it to say, the big boulder in the middle of the yard has been moved...by heavy machinery. The video was made for Christian's backhoe-loving son who was not there to witness is own Dad driving one.
