Happy Birthday Lon & Jaime!
May kicked off with a fun filled birthday week for the Jerome/Olesens. Yes, this meant dinner at Kahn's and yes, this meant Alice and I had some bonding time as her mom and dad celebrated their special days. Win/win situation I'd say!
Happy Birthday Dad!
I tried to keep quiet - but many of you knew that mom and I were planning a surprise for my dad's 60th. I got a cheap flight for the long weekend, and mom put together a neighborhood party to celebrate dad's 60th birthday! I still can't believe we pulled it off! We didn't have the timing totally worked out beforehand - but it totally did. Mom picked me up from the airport around 3pm (dad thought she was "getting a hair cut") - we beat dad home (he had driven to AZ to buy PowerBall tix) - and when he walked into the house - I was sitting at the counter with a beer in hand. Mom captured his surprise on film. . well. . digital bits or something.
I had a great time having mom and dad all to myself. We spent a lot of time at their new Aliante Station - which was good for mom - not so good for me. At least we had an awesome breakfast there at The Original Pancake House. My long Memorial Day Weekend came to a close way too early - Love ya Mom and Dad!!
Graduation Season Begins
Emily was my student teacher this year. She was actually my 10th student teacher already (yeah! I know! It makes me feel old too!) - she was pretty awesome (which isn't a "given" when accepting undergrads into your classroom!) - and I'm pretty proud of her. She's headed to Grad School in Spain next year - and she will be awesome at that too! Good Luck Emily!
Happy Birthday Cecelia!
Cousin Jeff and wife Bridget had their baby yesterday - Cecelia Anne. Congrats you guys!

Thanks for the update, nice pictures
Cleavage or not, Alice took a pretty good picture! I always end up immediately deleting the pictures my little ones take because they always manage to get the double chin in or the belly hanging out!
