Happy Birthday Daniel!!!

Thursday, Nov. 15th

The boys and I made decorations and cards, blew up balloons, baked a breakfast cake (blueberry bread) and hid them all before Daniel came home on Wednesday.

He came home exhausted and tired since his exam is looming closer and closer.

Early Thursday morning, JT, Nate, & I hung up the decorations, balloons, and laid out the cards. Then, we waited so that Daniel could get some sleep. He had gone to bed really, really late.
After an hour of JT hopping up and down, we invaded Daniel in bed with a candle-lit birthday breakfast cake. He is going to kill me for posting this pic! I'll post it really small.

After a super quick breakfast, Daniel was off to school! My poor husband didn't even know it was his birthday until we barged in with the cake. He was actually sad to know that it was thursday and not wednesday...you know, one less day to study!

While he was at school, I cooked traditional Korean birthday soup for dinner. And I baked my first birthday cake! I baked a two layer butter cake with chocolate frosting! So, so proud :)

I hid the cake until after dinner and surprised Daniel with it.

It wasn't the ideal birthday...since we didn't get to spend time together. But considering the circumstances, I think we managed. I also told Daniel that we couldn't be friends anymore since he is now in a different age bracket than I am. Hey, I'm still in my 20's no matter how late in them I may be! My Sweet Daniel is now a 30-something. Isn't life crazy?
