Happy (Cuarenta) Cinco de Mayo

It was a big BIRTHDAY weekend/start of the week
for John.



We had a family celebration on Sunday night that started with a very tasty dinner at Red Robin's.


Each time we go there, John and Nick have to
"race" the cars before
we sit down to dinner.

I'm not sure how much Nick gets to drive, but they both have a really good time.








We ended at John's parent's house.

There were lots of gifts and a YUMMY mint chocolate chip
ice cream cake.










Then the next morning (Monday), Nick and I surprised John with a few more presents from us and my family.



But, the festivities
still weren't over . . .







I cooked John a special sausage dinner (his request) and surprised
him with a mini cherry cheesecake
for dessert.







You HAVE to blow out a candle
on your birthday, or it just doesn't count in my book!
