Happy birthday to my best friend and the most wonderful father in the world! I love getting an entire day each year to celebrate the love of my forever. However, this year was somewhere between low-key and completely stressful. We took a family walk this morning, but it was drizzly and freezing. We went shopping at the mall, but the boys were insane. Literally. A tiny army of crazy people! Luckily, we got them all down for quiet time and regrouped before dinner. We thought about going out somewhere to eat, but decided it wasn't worth the fight with the boys. Yeah, it was one of those years. Instead we enjoyed a simple dinner at home then had my family over for the traditional doughnut cake. We celebrated with Darreck's family on Tuesday. For presents, Darreck got a watch from my family, movies from Gram and me, cologne, a polo shirt, and lots of Ninja Turtles. It wouldn't be Darreck's birthday without Ninja Turtles! I love that he's retained some of that childhood enthusiasm, and it makes him easy to shop for. All good stuff. The house is now a wreck, and we're both exhausted. However, I think we can call the day a success. Now to start planning for next year and the big 3-0!
