Happy Birthday Daddy!

It's been a banner day here! Today is B's 48th birthday! The girls have been so excited all week for daddy's birthday. Happy Birthday Dad was the first thing they said when they woke him up this morning.

B was supposed to be golfing today, but it was cancelled yesterday, due to the rain coming. And it is...a rainy day. So, the girls asked him if he could go "run some errands". It was so cute. We had all these plans we were going to do while he was golfing, but he accomodated us and "ran some errands".

So, first off, we got out the construction paper and craft materials to make cards. I forgot to get pics while we were making them, but here they are with the finished product. They had a little help with some of the writing.

So proud of the birthday card's they made!

Next, we moved on to the cake baking. I had one that wanted chocolate and one wanted vanilla, so we settled on a marble cake (just from a box, but still fun!). And then we did half and half on the frosting, half chocolate, half white. The chocolate is from the store, but we just made up the white with some butter and powdered sugar! YUM! My favorite!

Lindsey adds some water... Next, crack the eggs!

Stir it up, girls! Can't forget to lick the bowl!
The cake is cooling...

After the cake, we moved on to decorating. They wanted balloons and streamers, so I dug some out. They tried really, really hard to blow up the balloons, but...mom had to do it. And WHOA...it made me dizzy!

Come on Lindsey, you can do it! Blow really hard, Sydney!

Dad's home from his errands! SURPRISE!
Surprise!

HAPPY BIRTHDAY DADDY! We love you!

Happy Birthday Dad!  We love you!


And last, but not least, Lindsey & Sydney couldn't wait to sing to dad! I think they really were interested in the cake! LOL!

Thank you, honey, for all that you do for me and for our family! I hope you enjoy your day with all your girls! We love you so much! Or as the girls tell you every day...

"You're the BESTEST daddy EVER!"
