Brent's Birthday was last Friday and he turned 29. We didn't do much (money, rotations), but we tried to make the day as special as possible.
First Katrena made Dad Breakfast in Bed all by herself, I did take a picture, but Brent said I could not post that one.
Next up Ava (9 weeks) wore her "La la la la la, My Daddy Rocks and Sings to Me" shirt, which he does.
When Daddy got home we were still making his cards (he was home early and the 2 month old wouldn't let me put her down ALL day)! So cards were covered and he was sent to his room.
We all then went in and crawled on the bed while Dad read his cards from the girls, and opened their present, new basketball shorts, that actually go to the tall boys knees!!!
Then I hurried and made Mellow Cake (see card section for reason it was not already made), its a recipe his Brother got in Jr. High and is a family favorite and its very dense. Although the cake was yummy it wasn't nearly as dense this time, we are blaming it on the altitude, we'll have to tweak it for next time.
And then we were off to eat. Brent decided on Charlie's Steakery, we ate at the one in Mesa with his Brother and it was pretty yummy, so we thought we'd try the one in Glendale. Ya, mistake. After trying forever to find a parking spot we finally get in there (it's 8 o'clock) and they are cleaning the kitchen, and the mop is in the middle of the dining area. No one acknowledged us to say they were closed, but they obviously weren't cooking, so after standing there staring and each other and smile/laughing, we walked back out the door to the car. We then went to Shane's Rib Shack at Happy Valley for BBQ it was yummy and something new.
