While at first glance, this may appear to be my stunt double wake boarding this past summer, alas it is my big brother. And today (February 23/07) is his birthday!!
You see, I had a bad "b-day card" experience with my younger brother's birthday in November. In my rush to get him a card that would arrive on time, I quickly selected one from the "brother section" in the store, read it very quickly and sent it away. A week later when it arrived, he called to thank us, but asked why I had sent him a "step-brother" card?! Looking back it's rather funny, but - my bad. And now he's traumatized by my slip-up and demands to see blood tests and his birth certificate from my parents - hahaha!
So to avoid a repeat, I am making use of the BLOG and giving my older brother a big birthday shout-out! Now the world knows (or the seven people who read our blog) and you can take great pride in knowing you were the first big b-day shout-out (the first of many, I'm sure...anything to save $4.69 for a card, right?!)
Happy Birthday - save us some cake for when we see you in March!!

Happy Birthday Grant! I'm guessing this pic is on beautiful Sproat Lake!? Every Feb 23rd I think of you (even if I don't send a card anymore!)
Scott: when you see them in March, it'll be HG and Wesley's birthdays!!! Just to give you some warning :) Hmmm - someone else I know has a birthday in March too!
you guys sure do look alike. Happy birhtday Grant! Ah, give yourself some credit Scott - there's more than 7 people that read your blog! You need a counter... or maybe you have one. I'll check. Free, and very fun, especially if you get a little world map to go with it. I can see where people who visit my blog are from, all over the world - now THERE'S a self-esteem boost!!!!!!
Since you're our most frequent blogger-responder, Louise - You may get the 2nd b-day shout-out on our page on March 8!!
Thanks for the tracker ideas, Sarah - I'll have to check them out.
Oh no - birthday greetings are fine... photos from the archives are NOT! (don't know if you have any though!)I on the other hand do have all kinds of photos, of all kinds of friends and I happen to still have Katie's e-mail... beware!!!!!!
