Birthdays!!! Life is something to celebrate!!!

Steve and I are exactly one week and one year apart. His birthday is February 3rd and mine is February 10th. We love celebrating both our birthdays individually and together. Usually we celebrate our birthday together with our families and separately with just the two of us.

On our actual birthday day, we will make the birthday boy or girl breakfast in bed. This year I made Steve pecan cinnamon swirl pancakes and sausage. He ate 9 pancakes and 7 sausages (I think he really liked it!!!!!...he had a tummy ache later that day). I can't wait to see what Steve makes me on Friday. We love this tradition. It is a way to make us feel special on our day.


Along with making breakfast in bed we also make each other our favorite "birthday cakes". I am not a huge fan of cake, but I love zebra cake. Steve called my mom and got directions on how to make my special cake. I am so proud of him, he did such a great job.

I made Steve's favorite cake. It sounds very 'fruity and grilie' but he LOVES it! His favorite is Funfetti Cake (made with a cup of pudding to make it moist) and rainbow chip frosting. I know I know sounds fruity but he likes it.
