It's not every day that you get to celebrate your favorite persons birthday...and it's even more of an event when they are turning 40!!! I tried to make sure Matt had an amazing birthday and I think I did a pretty dang good job!
Matt's birthday was on a Sunday this year so the night before I took him out to dinner at one of his favorite restaurants, Tucanos. We haven't been in easily over a year and it was high time we went. We enjoyed the food and company, and it was nice just having an evening to ourselves.
Bright and early Sunday morning, October 2nd, we go up and spoiled Matt with some presents. The kids had a lot of fun helping to pick out Matt's presents (some new clothes for work and a lot of candy). They loved helping him open his presents as well. It was fun spoiling Matt and letting him know how much we love him.
That afternoon Matt's siblings came over to surprise him for his birthday and I surprised him with this killer cake. I think we did good. It's cute because the kids really wanted him to have a Star Wars cake and I wanted it to be funny so I thought of this saying to write on it, "Your lack of youth disturbs me!" and I think it fit pretty perfectly.
Overall I think he had a pretty good birthday. I am glad we were able to extend it to two days, spoil him with presents and food, and that his siblings were able to come over and help celebrate.
