First the day started with me setting my alarm for midnight and then I had a boot next to my bed that I grabbed and threw against her wall and yelled happy birthday. Apparently she yelled thank you back, but I think I feel back asleep before the boot hit the ground....
Then we actually woke up that morning and while she was in the shower, I ran into her room and waited for her to yell happy birthday again and give her presents! We now having matching water bottles, but different in out favorite color!
After that we ate cereal in front of the tv and watch Hannah Montana (I was more attached than she was) then got ready for church. As we saw people at church I made it a point to tell everyone that it was her birthday which then lead to a wonderful lunch with great company at Mucho Gusto. Kelli, Me and guys, hmmmm....
After that we headed home and I started on a cake recipe we found at borders but were too cheap to buy the book so Kelli pretended to read me a book as I took out my camera and took pictures of the recipe... oops. Anyway, I made the cake as Kelli watched basketball. I failed on the first attempt of the cake, so I made a second one that looked much better, but I still had no idea if it would be good or not. Put the cake away and then different people came over and we headed to the birthday dinner place, Cornicopia. Enjoyed great food and great company again.
(Kelli's burger was essential raw, so she had to send it back)
(We didn't make it in the group shot, so we had our own)
And then more friends came over for cake and laughter!
(It turned out delicious! I want to make it again)
(24 candles including the one on the side - she got them all)
(So cute it hurts)
It turned into a wonderful day and in the words of Kelli, one more year until she's half way to thirty! That birthday will be BIG. I'm already planning it. Half way to thirty! You're invited. March 28, 2011.
Love you Kelli. Glad we're number 1's! And thanks Suzie and Dan!
I'm a post late but congrats on the run my friend! I was smiling the entire time I was reading that...
ReplyDelete...and I think my entire year would be made if I recieved a cake that looked like that. I'm on my way to the nearest Bakery to try and quench the sweets craving that picture gave me.
I like that you have to put a jab at me on your blog post...
