Yesterday was Dan's 34th Birthday. We started the celebration the night before by going out to dinner with John and Jessica. Dan made me promise that there would be no singing at Goodwood, which was fine with me. I think we all had a good time. It was nice to be away from the kids for a few hours.
Sunday we woke up early for 8:00 church, so the party couldn't start until lunch! I think Dan enjoyed most of the day. We had him open his presents right after church. His main gift was a cordless play station controller. I think he was pleasantly surprised. Lunch consisted of pancakes, eggs and bacon. Dan didn't want a cake this year so we put candles in his pancakes and called it good, until I told the kids that we were going to make a birthday pie this year instead. . .they were devistated. . .so we ended up making cupcakes and pie this year to make them feel better.
I spent most of the afternoon in the kitchen making homemade spaghetti dinner (which is Dan's ultimate favorite dinner). The meatballs were just a little smaller than tennis balls. They were delicious, and of course I had to make my homemade rolls. We invited Ammon and his family over to help us celebrate. I think Dan was overall satisfied with his birthday. I was so exhausted that I went to bed early.
Dan, I love you! I just want you to know how grateful I am to have you in my life. You are the perfect dad and perfect husband. I love you now more than I did the day we go married!! Happy Birthday!
