We celebrated JAKE's 44th birthday today! He even had the paid day off, thank you My Employees. Jake & I spent the day together and here are the highlights in photos.

Breakfast before school: cranberry orange scones

Basketball Game

Jake's request: Reese's Cake

* S * N * O * W *

We had *S*N*O*W* in Wilmington on Tuesday evening.

Enough snow to build our family in snowmen.

Lots of playing in the snow.

The kids built a sled.

And sledding on Wednesday, Thursday & Friday.

The kids had an early release  on Tuesday and no school Wednesday, Thursday & Friday.

Celebrating 42!

We had smoothie bowls with toppings for breakfast. I absolutely loved all the handmade cards + art from each of the kids.  Then I dropped the kids at school and got some errands run. Jake & I had a lunch date at Fun Bowl. We love poke bowls!

Thursday we had basketball games all evening, so I packed a dinner and we were at the gym. The day before, Jake picked up gourmet cupcakes from The Peppered Cupcake. Once we got home from the games, we each had a sampler plate of cupcakes.

We went out for my birthday dinner on Saturday night - CAVA. 

Benny said, "Cava is so much better than pizza." 

Employee of the Year

 

Today, Jake was awarded Lean Champion of the 4th Quarter 2024 AND Lean Champion of the Year 2024. We are so proud of him! Jake's job has changed tremendously since he started in June of 2015. He continues to adapt, learn, grow, and honestly, he is killing his current role at My Employees.

**On Friday, January 24, we attended an Employee of the Year dinner at Port Land Grille to celebrate all the My Employees winners for 2024.
