So I turned the BIG 2-1 on Sunday which also happened to be Easter, so me and Ben celebrated both. Well the day before we went down to Ben's house and had a birthday/easter party for me, Chad (brother-in-law) and grandma Donna. It was so much fun!!! Me and Ben hid easter eggs in the basement for the kids to find and then we all had an amazing dinner. So then when Sunday rolled around I woke up to an amazing breakfast. I really wish I would have taken a picture because let's just say that Ben is really into the presentation of food. He made me crepes with homemade apple filling inside. It was seriously divine. He then garnished the top of the crepes with a lovely display of apples and put little chocolates around the plate. I was very impressed.
Then we went to church and I made it a purpose not to tell anyone it was my birthday because I feel somewhat awkward in the ward and I did not want any attention on me. Then we came home and once again Ben made an amazing dinner of ham, twice baked potatoes, and rolls. But that is not even the best part he made me a cake (seen below). Now this was not just an ordinary funfetti cake. Ben decided that he wanted it to layered. So I had a four layer cake with frosting in between each layer. It was delicious.
Side note: I also went out to lunch with the girls!!! It was so much fun!!!
After the Birthday celebration it was then time for Easter. So this year Ben and I made baskets for each other but then we realized that we did not get easter baskets so told each other that we just had to find something around the house to put our easter gifts in. This is what we came up with:
The Lamp
The cookie jar
