Happy Birthday Jesus

We started a new tradition this year...a birthday cake for Jesus. My Aunt Kay and Uncle Billy have always done this at Christmas and I always loved it. Chase helped us decorate the cake and then we sang Happy Birthday to Jesus on Christmas morning. It was so special and we look forward to doing this for many years to come...
