This weekend was my 27th birthday. Aaron & I celebrated Saturday evening with dinner out and then we returned home to bake a cake and watch a movie. This May we will have been married 5 years and this is the first time we have made a cake for either one of our birthdays. We went to the grocery store and searched through all the cake and icing flavors to find one that sounded delicious. We decided on Cherry Chip with Dark Chocolate frosting. We were a little adventurous in our baking adding a few goodies to the batter, but it turned out alright. We searched through the cabinets at home to find something to decorate it with and ended up with our masterpiece pictured in the top left corner. It was yummy and we had a great time enjoying our cake and some time together. Sunday we celebrated with my family. Dad grilled steaks for lunch, and Mom made brownies for dessert. Everything was utterly delicious and my birthday was quite special. Thanks to everyone who helped me celebrate.
Oh, and my little man turned 10 months this weekend too!
"...I asked for all things that I might enjoy life. I was given life that I might enjoy all things. I got nothing that I asked for, but everything I hoped for. Almost despite myself, my unspoken prayers were answered. I am, among all men, most richly blessed.”
But as for me and my house, we will serve the LORD.”
Joshua 24:14-16
