Birthday boy!

When Kermit came home from work on his birthday, Annaliese immediately told him that we had a 4 and a 2 to put on his chocolate cake for his birthday! I guess it wasn't supposed to be a surprise but it was still cute. We had a perfect dinner together...all five of us. Steaks and mashed potatoes. Yum! After the twins were in bed we opened presents...we meaning Annaliese. =) She just loves birthdays! Then for the chocolate cake, double yum! I think he really did have a happy birthday just being home with his girls. That weekend we got a sitter and he and I grabbed a cab and headed to the movies (Amazing Grace). We walked home with some yummy Starbucks cocoa. Simple pleasures.

So far 42 has found Kermit down in his shop. He finished a project he has been working on for a long time. A tool chest! A thing of beauty that holds EVERYTHING! Now everything has a place and he is able to find anything he needs quickly. He put it to the test by making a backyard swing for the kids in record time! What a cute swing too!
