Daniel Turns 34

We had a fun time celebrating one of the best husbands and Daddies around. 

On the day of Daniels actual b-day the kids and I celebrated him with his favorite meal...burgers and his favorite dessert...a huge chocolate chip cookie cake (actually we made two of them). 

The kids were oh so excited to celebrate their Daddy. 

Joshua decorating the cookie cake.  He kept himself busy for quite a while decorating.   


As we were getting ready to sing happy b-day Joshua insisted that we turn off the lights because he said that is what we did last year.  Several days later I looked at pictures from last year and sure enough he was correct.  He forgets nothing!

Notice how this cake was taste tested before we even sang?  Wish I could blame this solely on the kids but Mommy and Daddy sampled it too. 

 
Speaking of last year's b-day... 
  
Last year's cake was taste tested too.  We must a have no self control when it comes to sweets in this house. 
 
And oh my goodness, look how little my baby girl was. 
 
Now back to this year's b-day. 
 

This next picture just warm my heart.  The kids were just so happy it was Daddy's birthday.  They were beaming with pride for him.  Kayla kept randomly telling him, "Happy 'dirt' day Daddy."   

 
Watching Daddy open his present.
 

Two days later Omah and Papa took the kids so Mommy and Daddy could celebrate at Texas Roadhouse together...alone...just us two...no kids :) 

The next day we all went to Omah and Papa's to celebrate Daddy again and watch the Broncos.  Joshua thought because this was his 2nd time celebrating Daddy that he was now turning 35. 

Kayla knew we were going to be celebrating Daddy at Omah and Papa's house so when I was loading her up the previous night for our date night she just started randomly singing Happy "Dirt" Day to Daddy.

Another funny is when we were talking about how Daddy is "old" Joshua asked in seriousness, "Is he going to die soon?"  He knows when people get old they die.  I had to quick reassure him that Daddy really wasn't old. 
Omah trying to get a song of Happy Birthday started but her effort was quickly interrupted by a good play. 


Happiest b-day to the one who loves with all that he is, serves his family with a happy heart, and plays with his kids like he is one himself.  We love you!
