Daddy Gets Old

So, my dear husband turned 40 on Oct 4th! He didn't want to make a big deal out of it and he specifically didn't want a party, but I wanted to make it a little festive for him, so I chose to decorate in a football theme when his family came over to celebrate for a birthday dinner. 

Liam helped arrange the balloons and both him and Christian watched and approved while I baked his chocolate butter cream birthday cake. I found some old pictures of Ryan playing football back in his scholar athlete days and elementary school years and used them to make place cards. I'm so proud of him. And- of course - that night, I dressed our boys in football shirts for the occasion. :) Do I get a thumbs up?

Don't feel bad for Ryan, though. We sent him on 4 days of vacation with a few of his friends, while I manned the house and kids at home so he could enjoy a birthday trip. Humph! ;) jk

Happy 40th, to my Sweetheart!







Nice glasses...That's a LOT of candles!!! Hahaaa.
