The next major holiday was Andy's 28th Birthday!!! This handsome man is 28!!!! We had a wonderful time honoring the life that Andy has spent bringing joy, laughter, love, and support to all of those around him.
I made a tilapia dinner, with my famously delicious green beans, and some chocolate covered stawberries...that stuck to the plate because (as Andy pointed out), I forgot to put them on wax paper :D They were still delish, and lots of fun!!! We both commented on how nice it was to eat together at the table at home, instead of out to eat.
And, Drum Roll, please! ddrmdrmdrrrmmddrm, His Birthday Cake! Made with love, by ME :D I thought after his huge leaps of success of weight loss, that it was only appropriate to name him Biggest Loser, Birthday Boy! :D It was a red velvet cake with rainbow chip icing in the middle!
We decided to have Small Group at our house Monday night, so everyone was able to share in Andy's birthday! Now, I seem to be unconsciously setting a bit of a tradition for Andy's birthday. For the second year in a row, I cut the cake before lighting candles and singing happy birthday!!!!! This year, I didn't even have birthday candles, so I had to improvise :/ i think he still enjoyed :)
We once again Rocked out to Rock Band after small group
And, now our 3rd celebration! Tuesday marked our 2nd Anniversary! Mom and Dad got us our cake topper, and this time they put TONS of flowers on top!!!! It was delish! We did the fam cake cutting on Sunday after watching Night at the Museum II. It was amazing! you should definately go see it if you haven't!!!
And, finally, as a HUGE suprise, Andy got us tickets to Wicked, tomorrow afternoon! We will then be heading to Magianno's for a tasty treat, using our Anniversary gift from the G's!!! :D I will definately post pics from that!
That's all for now, people! We leave for Alaska on Saturday, but I'll try to post again before we leave!
