Danny's 40th Birthday

Danny celebrated his 40th birthday this past week. The girls had their first in person Young Women's activities in almost a year that night, so he chose to have his birthday dinner on Tuesday the 9th instead of on his birthday. We went to black bear diner. The boys loved their cute beary pancakes.

we had to make the celebration, on his birthday fairly quick and we were glad that Gawbie and Grandpa were able to join us for it (they also have not been in our house for almost a year). We had fun blowing up 40 balloons with reasons why we love daddy. He got to pop all of the balloons and then we taped the reasons to a big poster. Ashley did NOT like the balloon popping, but the rest of us thought it was fun.

He requested angel food cake for his cake and we barely fit all 40 candles on the cake. It was fun trying to get them all lit before too much wax got on the cake.

He also opened presents from each of us, but I didn't get any pictures of that. We love having Danny as our Father/husband. He works hard at his job and plays hard with us and we couldn't ask for a better man in our lives.
