So both Luke and I celebrated our birthdays at the end of November and typical for us, they were awesome! Luke's not really into showboat celebrations, (he was totally the kid who opened his presents in the sly, taped them back up, and then feigned surprise when the time came) so his birthday was as low key as possible. Mine, however, was a classic, planned in advance sequence of coordinated surprises, an operation including breakfast made for me in my new cozy sky blue robe, dare devil ice skating, cake decorating (a childhood dream come true!) dinner at a fabulous chicken serving establishment, a dessert picnic party on the floor of our friend's new house and last but not least my favorite bottle of wine. Unfortunately, we didn't get pictures of anything but the finished product of the cake.
