Happy Birthday Jon!

The last piece of the German Chocolate Cake I made for him on Sunday. I didn't have the camera with me Sunday when he blew out his candles, so I had him do it again for the picture.

Yesterday was Jon's birthday. It was a pretty ordinary day because he still had to work all day. I wanted to make his day seem a little special, so I went to the store before Tanner came over, and I bought Jon some balloons and a small package of Reese's Peanutbutter Cups which are his favorite. I dropped them off at his office that morning, so he could enjoy the balloons and treat all day. We have been out to eat so much lately, so Jon requested his favorite dinner for me to make, meatballs and mashed potatoes (his mom's recipe). I made a nice dinner, and then of course he had to open his presents. He got lots of cards money, which is perfect because he can order a bunch of new games. Yay! After presents we had a few errands to run so we stopped at the mall and filled his popcorn bucket with Karmel Korn's cheese corn. This has become a tradition since we've lived here. My parent's bought him the bucket filled with cheese corn two years ago, when they were here for Jon's birthday, so I've tried to keep up the tradition. I would have surprised him with it that morning, but the mall wasn't open at 9:00 am. Happy Birthday Jon! I hope you had a wonderful day.
