Yesterday was my XXst birthday. Our neighbors, the Munderlohs, took us out to eat at the town pub and made me a chocolate cake! Mama sent a package of goodies, including these dark chocolate m&ms! Yum! For supper we had “birthday pizza” at an after rehearsal dinner for a wedding Phil is doing today. I was just happy to not have to cook!

The Munderlohs and their granddaughter Makala came over for the surprise lunch downtown!
This is the card my sweet husband made me.
I’m still creeped out when I look at our faces, but I love my dress! It’s a bit see through, but so glamorous with the “off one shoulder” design! Also note how tall Phil is, at least I think that’s Phil, his head seems a little small and he’s shaved his beard.Life was quite different now than this time last year! I’m really looking forward to the changes this year will bring.

Yesterday was Phil’s 29th birthday! He was surprised with a wonderful breakfast of all his favorites; hash browns, boiled eggs, bacon and homemade biscuits. He’s such a lucky boy! Also, he finally got to open his cards and a present from my mom. Little did he know that the day would hold another surprise that evening, a secret meatball and spaghetti supper with some good friends! I’d busied myself all week plotting right under his nose and it really paid off.

A shirt from my mom!
Phil arrived home hoping to run off and play some basketball then have a quiet evening. I think he enjoyed what I had planned for him instead.Look how much fun he’s having!

I made baked spaghetti for the guests and myself, but Phil will have no part of spaghetti with meat in the sauce. He’s a strictly meatballs guy. He had his own birthday boy plate. These happen to be the best meatballs I’ve ever made. Believe it or not, I didn’t, he ate all of this.
There’s my baked spaghetti. It was a hit.
And a chocolate chip birthday cake. He did not eat all of this. I almost did though.

My surprise party went very well. I think I’ll do it again next year.
