Happy Birthday to Aaron!

    Aaron is now 11 years old. Here he is with some of his loot.  So far he’s received a book called “The Gamemaker’s Apprentice” about computer game development, a cool duffel bag made by Grandma Lou (Aaron calls it the bag version of his quilt), some money and a GameStop gift card.  Not bad!
    In case you are wondering, the face is my strange idea for gift wrapping, the nose is actually a pencil sharpener I found.  (Yeah, you stick the pencil up the nose to sharpen it.  Classy, eh?) So I drew the face and stuck the nose on in the middle. 
    For the traditional birthday dinner out, Aaron chose Max and Erma’s.  This is a frequent choice because of the make-your-own sundae bar.
