happy happy birthday

with ryan's work schedule, we almost switched his birthday with our anniversary, but things ended up working out on their proper days.  ryan surprised me with a real date when i got home from work on our anniversary.  he had my dress clothes laid out and ready to go, cody was already at the babysitter, and all i had to do was text when i was ready to go.  we had a great dinner at pf changs.  soooo tasty.

ryan happened to have his birthday off of work, so we started off the day with a good breakfast and present opening.  ryan had mentioned that the typical kid's gift to dad is ties, so cody and i picked a couple out.  i made sure to get him some new shirts to match...which he needed more than the ties.

instead of our favorite peanut-butter and chocolate cake, ryan requested carrot cake with raisins.  i made it tall with lots of layers (its always better with more cheesecake frosting right?).  we sang and cut into it before cody went to bed.

cody was a good sport and clapped along with everything, but we clearly need some work on the birthday song and birthday events.

ryan got a plane from my parents that ended up not working right.  he returned it and they didn't have any more, so he got a new bag.  when an amazon gift card came through his email, he wasted no time ordering a remote control helicopter and has played with it non-stop.
