Birthdays are a big deal in our family. We stretch out the Celebration for as long as we possibly can. My parents love to host Birthday Dinners for all 6 of their birth children, 2 children in-law, and 3 grandchildren. How it usually works is that we pick our favorite dinner and Mom takes care of the rest. I have to say it's always great fun whenever we get together for these occasions. There's lots of food, laughing, and entertainment. This time around it was my baby's birthday...not either of my children...but my husband...my dear sweet Erik. He picked Mexican food as his dinner of choice...his FAVORITE and my Mom's specialty. I have to say my mother really outdid herself this year. The cake she made with my brother Gabriel's help was beautiful and really yummy. She could really give Martha Stewart a run for her money on this one. It was a fantastic night. We played some games, ate A LOT, and enjoyed each others company. Erik was showered with all sorts of fun things he can enjoy (I'll be enjoying that movie gift card with him though...babysitting WAS included). Another Birthday Party success...
