Dan's Birthday


Dan had a good day celebrating his birthday! He was crazy busy at work, so we patiently waited for him to get home so we could jump right in the car to head out to dinner. Kylie was home sick and I had to pick up Megan from school because she was sick, otherwise I probably would have tried to go meet him for lunch. Dan's choice for dinner was PF Chang's :) We had a super yummy meal and the girls and I had stopped at Baskin Robbins to pick up an ice cream birthday cake for him on the way home from the doctors! Super busy traffic out after dinner made it take us over an hour to get home...and in the meantime all 3 kids had fallen asleep in the car. We woke them up for Dan to open his presents and to sing him Happy Birthday and then send them up to bed! He had a good birthday!

Dan got to open Uncle Matt and Aunt Tiff's present in the morning before work :)

The beautiful coin holder that Uncle Matt made for Dan for his birthday to hold all his coins he's collected from his trips!
