Happy Birthday to Me!

I had a fun birthday yesterday, despite the fact that Ryan had to leave halfway through for a business trip.  Ryan had me convinced that he had forgotten my birthday altogether since he was so busy getting ready to leave, but when I woke up in the morning I found these.  He went out to get them while Lucas and I were sleeping.
After I dropped Ryan off at the airport, Lucas and I went to my parent's house for my birthday dinner.  We had delicious Gyoza, Stir Fry Udon, and lots of other yummy foods.  For dessert we had the famous Burnt Almond Cake from Dick's Bakery.  It was so yummy, and I'm eating the left overs right now.
My dad got all 27 candles on the cake.  Holy crap!  When did I get to be 27?
 I blew out all the candles in one breath!  Boo yeah!
 Afterwards I opened presents.  Lucas was so excited to help.

Mmmmm... that cake is delicious. We'll have to get it next time I visit. The special occasion can be that I'm visiting! I hope your birthday was wonderful.

Happy Birthday Katie :) These pictures made me miss you a lot - can't wait to see you in just a couple weeks! P.S. Lucas looks so grown up in the last two pictures. :)

Your Christmas decorations are gorgeous! I'm going to steal some of the ideas... Also, you should include pictures of yourself on your blog more often...and happy belated birthday!

I'm glad we used your birthday as an excuse to make gyoza. It was so delicious! The flowers are beautiful. Good job, Ryan!

Happy birthday! Glad you had a nice birthday even with Ryan out of town.

Only 27? You're still so young! So nice that you have your parents close by to celebrate with. You are so blessed with family close by!
