Inbetween Birthdays

The best thing about being two days older than Chris is that our birthday celebrations generally stretch over all three days--my birthday, his birthday, and the day in-between. This year was even better when you added the ward party the day before. Sweet.


Our "family" party ended up being on Sunday night. I wasn't thrilled with the idea of making two cakes and Chris wasn't thrilled with the idea of two-day-old cake for his birthday, so we partied together.

Well, first let's celebrate the deliciousness that is birthday food. French dip sandwiches for lunch, spaghetti for dinner. It isn't a birthday without spaghetti. Round it off with green cupcakes and you're good to go.




Happy birthday to us!




We made the cake because I got tired of making cupcakes. Plus, it was way easier for frosting and candles.

Presents rocked this year. Chris gave me a new set of pens--which rolls up for me to carry around. Fabulous. And a Utah State University Alumni license plate frame for the van. I am thoroughly looking forward to driving around with this frame and New Mexico plates in some other state entirely during grad school. It'll be awesome.


Chris made bank, too. Four new Rubik's cubes--2x2, 3x7, tetrahedron and dodecahedron.




We had a delightful little party, and the cake was lovely, too.
