Happy Birthday Daddy!

It kinda seems like the older we get the less "glamorous" our birthdays become... nothing fancy here!  I let the kids be in charge of the cake this year (a little hard for me to do, but it was fun and not stressful at all!)  I also bought frosting (another first for me!)  We made a cherry chip cake with cherry vanilla frosting (Marc's favorite) and I let each kid pick something to decorate with.  Kinnick chose black decorator frosting, Sadie chose sweet tart balls, and Macey picked green sixlets.  Each kid got a third of the cake to decorate...
The night of Marc's birthday we got our new fridge.  To save money, Marc enlisted our friend Eli to help him pick it up and move the old fridge out/new fridge in.  We picked up Chipotle (Marc's favorite) and enjoyed hanging out with our friends as we moved in our new fridge.

We also made this "one-of-a-kind" art work for Marc to put in his office.  I bought this canvas last year with the idea of making this... I'm glad it took an extra year to get it done because it now has 4 hand prints instead of 3!  The kids did the fingerpainting and we added the handprints after it was dry.
