Jordan was gone to a training in Colorado Tuesday through Friday (March 3-6) last week. McKay and I were so excited to have him home. McKay noticed right when he woke up Saturday morning that Daddy's phone was within his reach and that his suit case was in the livingroom. He kept pointing to the bedroom, where Jordan was trying to catch up on some sleep - he knew Daddy was home! When Jordan got up he was greeted with a 'hi' and a hug from McKay. McKay was right at Jordan's heels all day long. He isn't much of a cuddler but he sat on Jordan's lap for a long time while Jordan used the computer.
Lots of hugs and kisses for Daddy!
The day was so beautiful we decided to walk to the park. McKay found some 'flowers' growing in the grass (dandelions & clover flowers) we all got to smell. I've trained him well!
McKay just couldn't get enough of his Daddy! Jordan was using his massage pillow he got early from his parents for his birthday so McKay climbed up with a couple of books for Jordan to read to him before naptime.
McKay loves to sit on things that are 'just his size'. Daddy's foot is just right!
Jordan really got spoiled for his birthday this year. We had been thinking about getting a grill but couldn't seem to justify it yet. The one we had been watching at Home Depot was another $10 cheaper so we decided it was time to buy one. Here Jordan is grilling some delicious t-bone steaks for his birthday dinner. We have already used it a lot and are lovin it!
Jordan got 12 gauge heavy duty extension cord with a 3-way splitter for running his power tools from my Mom & Dad. In addition to the grill, McKay & I gave him some 'tools' for making healthy treats, including an olive oil sprayer and a microwave popcorn bowl which pops popcorn like an air popper.
Jordan was happy to recieve this massage pillow from his parents for his birthday. It has already been put to good use!
Jordan is actually 26 this year but we are not big cake fans and between not having anyone to help us eat another dessert and the Moser biggest loser competition, Jordan got to blow out a candle in a cupcake I got from church. (Hey, it was a good cupcake!) Saturday night we went to PF Changs for dinner, which was great, and got a birthday cheesecake dessert - literally 2 bites for each of us. The cheesecake wasn't quite enough so we decided to try out a frozen yogurt shop we have been eying since we noticed it a few months ago. It too was great!Happy Birthday Jordan! We love you!

That's a good idea for a birthday cake. We certainly would have been better off. I made Derrick a chocolate bundt cake for his birthday, and it was so good, he asked me to make another. And I did. So bad.
Hope you enjoyed that cupcake! My birthday "cake" last year was a smoothie with a candle stuck in it - probably will be again this year! Hope you had a great day.
looks like a fun birthday and happy homecoming.
Happy belated birthday to Jordan!
The pictures of McKay with his daddy home are really cute. Our baby Joseph has an outfit just like that blue striped one McKay is wearing. I posted pictures of him in it on 2.22.09 'baby-at-arms'. I thought it was kind of fun that they live on opposite sides of the country and have almost the same outfit :)
Keep posting, Maria! I love reading about your life and your family--
