You know what you should do 2 days after you move into your new house?
Invite people over for a birthday dinner for your husband. Not stressful at all.
We had my cousin and Mykey's good friend come over. He and his buddy share a birthday! Mykey always wants chocolate cream pie for his birthday dessert but this year he was waffling between that and cheesecake. The poor guy just couldn't decide.
I asked his buddy what he wanted for his birthday dessert. Without hesitation he said, "Cheesecake."
Mykey wins! Chocolate cream pie AND cheesecake. Best 49th birthday ever.
Since we aren't completely moved in yet, I cooked everything at the condo and then hauled it over to the new house. It was a bit of a chore but way better than trying to cook in upheaval. We ended up having a lovely time.
On Mykey's actual birthday, he spent part of the day doing this:
And then he was tired and wanted Wendy's for lunch. He thought it was a birthday miracle when this car was in front of him in the drive thru.
But then the guy turned out to be a jackal and held up the line so long our food was cold.
And then walking into the house, the bag of food ripped.
Happy birthday to no one!
But he did get a few nice gifts from me and Sissy. He had to wait until the day after his birthday for Sissy's poster because of shipping delays. But it was worth the wait.
And we wandered around our favorite wholesale store. You never know what treasures you're going to find. The birthday boy found some project boards for cheap! The birthday magic was restored.
It was a fun day indeed. We sure love our Mykey. Happy birthday!
