I asked John what he wanted to do for his birthday and he said to just have our family and friends over. So I invited Steven and Jaime's families and the Pyne's over for dinner, cake, and ice cream.
Wow, that was a lot of people in one town home, but everyone had a good time. I made Cafe Rio pork with all the toppings and dressing and Jaime and Kat were nice to pitch in with the dinner. Jaime gave me the most delicious cake recipe and frosting so I made that as well! So good.
John's big surprise was a new bike I bought from a neighbor who was selling it! Other than that I think I just got him a few clothes, it is not May and it's hard to remember! The Shippen's are always so thoughtful and either make some sort of fun card. They made John that huge happy birthday sign and all signed their names.
For my birthday we went as a family to Heber and stayed at Jaime's in-laws (Laura and Charlie Allen) vacation town home. It was beautiful and so fun to go hot tubbing, watch netflix, eat, relax, play tennis, and ride on the ranger. John bought cinnamon rolls for my birthday breakfast, which was fun and different than the usual cake. This is the third year in a row we have stayed in some sort of cabin-like place for my birthday. It's a fun tradition. I am officially in my upper-20's!
