Today is the Big Guy's Birthday!
He had us up before the sun to start a bike ride. Peanut was a trooper and came with us.
After the ride, we met his mom, dad, sister and BIL for breakfast. It was a nice treat. Carb overload with the yummy French Toast.
The Big Guy gave us two options, clean the garage or go see the movie, Captain Phillips. You know we chose the later. It was a good one.
We are making a birthday dinner at home - filet on the green egg, twice baked potatoes, asparagus, tossed salad and rolls. It is all good as we skipped lunch.
Peanut made a chocolate cake from scratch. We did not have enough cocoa for chocolate icing. He made a buttercream icing, shaved some dark chocolate and shook some cocoa on it. Here's to hoping it tastes good!
Folks routinely say that the years fly by. Boy! They do. We face timed with Pumpkin as the Big Guy opened his presents. It was fun and we all kept laughing. I made him a pair of socks. I'll have to post a picture. He was a good sport as I knit them right under his nose actually having him try them on to make sure they fit. We gave him a dome lid for the green egg. And, we gave him a much needed new pair of dress shoes. Peanut's foot is about the same size. We nailed it finding a pair that fit his narrow feet! I'm thinking he's had a good day.

I hope the cake was yummy! Sounds like a good birthday. I know what you mean about the years flying by... I hope they slow down a little!
