Happy Birthday to Us!

Filed under: Our Stories — Emily @ 3:21 pm

If you’re the curious sort, you probably already know Mark and I are brother and sister who share the same birthday. In celebration of our day, I’m posting a few pictures of our third and seventh birthdays. You can see Mark below, contemplating his third birthday wish.

I gotta tell you, with two kids born in April, my mom got a lot of mileage out of the double birthday bunny cake! See how convenient it is to put his candles on one ear and mine on the other?

Here we are working on one of the earliest Butler Projects–figuring out what Mark got for his birthday. That’s our middle brother, Nate on the left in the Hardee’s hat (probably our first choice for birthday dinner) and me on the right, looking smug with the certainty that he will not get anything as cool as my new Barbie furniture.

PS. Image credits go to Dad, and my mom did all the rest.

  2. Hi,

    I found your site while going through my stats, and stopped to read a few posts.

    I really found two of them fantastic, and have featured them as “special picks” on my Blog Carnival that is hosted at my site OIBO.ORG.

    Along with selecting two posts as Editors picks, I’ve also mentioned them in my weekly podcast.

    You can view the post, and listen to the podcast at http://www.oibo.org/internet-business-blog-carnival-edition-8.html.

    If you feel like spreading some link love around - I’d appreciate a mention on your site with a link to my site or to the post.

    Best of luck with your blog!

    Regards,

    Mohamed
