To most people April 15 is income tax day. But here at Renstromania, it's double birthday time! Scott and his mom both share April 15 as a birthday. So.... just for the occasion, I'm actually creating a new blog! Here's a picture of Mimi Renstrom holding Greta when we were down in FL visiting in January. Greta got to help pick oranges and grapefruits from Mimi and Papa Renstrom's trees.
Here's the birthday boy with Bennett. Scott enjoys being a grandfather as much as anything he's ever experienced. He's never happier than when both girls are in his arms. Last weekend we enjoyed some time in Raleigh with Bennett and Greta and their parents. Today Bennett called (with the help of her mommy) and said, "Happy, Happy Poppy!"
Still one of the favorite girls in his life, Leigh Anna poses with Scott in front of a wine rack somewhere; but as far as I know, they're both drinking ice tea. Speaking of birthdays, in a few weeks Leigh Anna will be twenty and we will no longer have a teenager in our family. Now that makes us feel old!One final birthday note - Today at my office at church a bouquet of flowers was delivered. Inside was a card from Scott that said, "Because of you all my birthdays are happy ones!" How's that for sweet? And.. how many men send their wives flowers on their own birthdays?
Happy Birthday Scott! - from Susan
Happy Birthday Papa Squat! - from Daniel, Danielle, Adam, Nat, and Leigh Anna
Happy Happy Poppy! - from Bennett and Greta

Nat,I'll post the pictures from Angus Barn as soon as Scott gets home this weekend. Couldn't get them downloaded yesterday for some reason.Got some good ones.
I thought I would add to all the "special" names...Happy Birthday, Uncle Shark! Love, Brady
Scott,
I ran across your blog site quite by accident. I was at TTC in '73. You had a great impact on my young life at that time. I have prayed for you over the years.
