Mark's birthday fell just after returning from our week-long vacation to Lake Blackwell up near Alexandria at the end of July, and just before we were expecting a week-long visit from Mark's brother and his family from California, so we didn't go too big with the celebrating this year.
The week was super busy with swimming lessons starting for the boys, but Mark's Mom came over with a cake right after work to celebrate early. (As an aside, we couldn't find a '7' candle at the store, as apparently someone must have ordered a ton of '0's and no other numbers, so we made due, as 4+2+1=7 haha)
Then, the boys and I made him a cake, and we had a few gifts to open after swimming lessons were over and we had eaten our supper.
I think it's something we're going to have to come to accept that we're never going to get to blow our own birthday candles out again haha
Or open our own birthday presents ;)
This year, we got Mark a few new shirts and a bluetooth wireless speaker.
Happy 37th birthday, honey! We love you so very much! Sorry the day was so chaotic and crazy, but I suppose life is gonna be like that for a while, what with 3 little boys under 5 in the house.
