You've had a Birthday shout hooray!

Sunday was Jon's birthday, and since he is so busy with school we tried to fit our celebrations in here and there. Addie and I took him out to dinner on Thursday at a great Mexican place. Then on his special day, I made him breakfast in bed and then a yummy steak dinner.

Jon never gets steak because I don't cook it often, so he was very happy...this picture captures his emotion about right.


Here he is modeling his new backpack. It is the biggest one I have ever seen...which isn't evident from this picture, but trust me. It fits his huge laptop and like 4 or 5 law school books. And law school books are big and boring. It was exactly what he needed and wanted.


I don't have a picture of him blowing out candles, because that actually never happened. See in our house we don't love cake...so even on birthday's, which cake has the corner market on, we don't usually indulge. Instead I made him a delicious Raspberry and Peach crumble (kind of like a cobbler but better). So I was thinking, "this should be eaten warm with vanilla ice cream on top", so only minutes after pulling it out of the oven I proceeded to put 27 candles in instead of letting it cool. Those of you that are smarter, or at least quicker than I was that day, will realize the problem right away with this brilliant plan. I, however, was having one of those days, so I didn't realize until I repositioned one and saw the pool of blue wax. First I flipped out, and then I had a good laugh while I spooned most of the wax out. Jon just laughed at his silly wife, because he is much smarter than that. It was most delicious anyways!

Happy Birthday to the best husband/father there is! We love you babe.
