Yesterday was my birthday. Ryan wrapped all my presents up with ribbons and bows and then attached fresh flowers from the garden to each package. Even though they were wrapped in navigation maps, they were the most beautiful packages ever!. He even picked me a bouquet for the birthday table! He is so sweet to me on my birthday.
For Birthday supper we had chicken tostadas with white kidney beans. I had never had white kidney beans before, but they sure were good.
My birthday cake was a surprise to me...Ryan hid it away in the fridge, and under no circumstances was I to peek. I was thrilled when supper-time came and he took it out to thaw---it was a tirimisu cake from M&M's and it was GooD! (Ryan has actually mentioned how good it was several times...which for him is an anomaly. That is how good it was)
I must say, too, that the presents this year were better than the cake! I got the most wonderful package of "silly stuff" that was anything but silly. Thank-You Mom...you really are the worlds best mom! I wouldn't trade the love in that box for a million dollars! And, my father in law and his wife sent me out a lovly card--stuffed with a lovely check! Thanks guys---I will put that money towards something wonderful! (probobly wonderful dishes!)
And, Ryan got me my clothesline!!!! Hooraaaaay! I am so happy. I have wanted a clothesline since the day we moved in...now, 4 years later, I have one!
And, if you couldn't tell from the above picture, Ryan got me a MAN'S weedwacker! I wasn't too thrilled about it as a present, but it is badly needed as our old weedeater, a lovely Christmas present from my parents 3 years ago, overheated last month and the head blew apart.
