Happy Birthday Daddy!!




Brian's birthday was last week and we celebrated by going out to eat with his parents on Sunday. He was really excited to try a new restaurant and when we got to it, we were disappointed to find out it was closed...oops! So we decided on another favorite we liked and it too was closed! What was the deal...it was like a ghost town. Finally we found a quaint authentic Mexican restaurant that was open and pigged out on chips and salsa! When we got back to our house, Brian's mom had a little trivia game set up for him to recieve his presents. If he got a question wrong, then the kids got to pick from the pile of presents to keep for themselves. Turns out Brian has a horrible long term memory and the kids all got a present that had $1 and a juice box in it! Then she gave him his real gift..a Land's End vest and money. He also got money from my parents and so he purchased new running shoes, since he is planning to run a marathon this year(we'll see!) On Monday, the kids and I decorated the house and made him his favorite meal with a homemade birthday cake. They shouted Happy Birthday when he walked in the door and bombarded him with "Look Daddy!" It was a great day!
