Baby Brother's Birthday

My baby brother is older today...soon he will pass me up as I have decided to go backwards in age now so in a couple of years he will be older than me.  I was 2 1/2 years old when he was born.  I was the best big sister ever!
Carey and Connie 1954 at the farm in Carsonville Township.

He had knee surgery January 23 and says his PT gal really makes him work.  When he gets done with physical therapy he will have two good knees again.

The Trailcam catches him from time to time as he comes by to visit or mow.  Last summer we were gone to the University of Minnesota and he and his lovely wife mowed our lawn.

My baby brother and his wife stopping by to visit.  Their lake home is just down the road.

Happy Birthday Baby Brother!

    Happy birthday to another March baby! My 66th birthday was Tuesday. And 43rd wedding anniversary was yesterday. Pretty depressing way to celebrate!

    Happy Birthday! I think it is my SIL's birthday today and I know it is my youngest son's tomorrow. How could that kid be turning 39?

    Happy Birthday to your Baby Brother. It's funny how no matter how old you are, in your family your still the baby if you're the last born. That's me too.

    It made me chuckle that you used trail cams pics to show us your brother. Hope he has a great birthday.

    Happy, Happy Birthday to your baby brother. I would love to have family close by. We're pretty much alone out here. That's why even though we love Washington state, we're planning to move back to Nebraska when we retire. Family is SO important.
    Blessings,
    Betsy

    Such a cute picture of you taking care of your baby brother. Not the best time to have a birthday. Who’s going to help him blow out all those candles?!! My hair was the same color as yours at your age.

    Happy Birthday to your brother Carey! Does he know that he will be bypassing you in age one of these years? I love those pictures of your beautiful green grass. Seems like a long time since I've seen any grass! Hoping all is well with the 2 of you!

    Happy Birthday to your baby brother. I bet you were the best big sister ever. Sure looked pretty around your place when the pictures were taken. I'll be glad when everything is nice and green again.
