A Birthday And Other Exciting Things

My husband's birthday cake of choice every year



My sweet husband turns 30 today! We have an exciting few days ahead, and it's so perfect that they just happened to line up with my husband's birthday. We are flying to Charlottesville, Virginia today and we're so thrilled to be able to spend some time with good friends of ours who live there. On Friday, my husband and his buddies are headed up to Atlantic City for one of his best friend's bachelor party while I spend the weekend with my parents in D.C. Ever since we moved to Alabama, I've been rather deprived of visits with my family so I can't wait to see them! I requested that we take at least one bike ride and we're going to a piano concert on Saturday afternoon at the Library of Congress, which should be wonderful.

Here's to a happy, happy birthday to my one and only! And to good friends, fun bachelor parties, and time with Mom and Dad. We're feeling so blessed around here.

  10. Thanks Karen! I tried a new (simpler) recipe this year and we agreed it was better than last year's. "More like Mom's" is what your son said :))
