This Fenn/Cook(Read Sisters) Birthday Party for Jesus started many years ago when the Cook family moved to Texas. We always eat the food Jesus ate, which is fish(we eat fish sticks), dry fruit, bread and grape juice. We then sing Happy Birthday to Jesus and have cake. Next we exchange gifts. We always try to spend only $10 per gift. It is always so fun. In 2014(the year Devren and Kaelene were on missions) Sandee and I did not feel like having fish sticks so we changed it up and made homemade waffles. We thought it was a good idea. They were so good and tastier than fish sticks. Then 2015, Devren and Kaelene hear from Karlee and Kymberlee that last year(2014) we had waffles. They can not believe it. Karlee and Kymberlee then say they could not believe it either, it was terrible. How can we have a Birthday Party for Jesus and eat waffles instead of fish?? That was not right. So never again will we have anything but fish sticks for Jesus Birthday Party. The whole thing was quite funny to Sandee and I as we had no idea the change would cause such an ordeal. Live and Learn!! Kids like to stick with family traditions. Thanks to our bigs kids we are back on track. This year 2016 we ate fish sticks!!
