Happy Birthday Devry!

December 28th was Devry's 26th Birthday! Having a birthday so close to Christmas is always a challenge. I really try to make sure the day is special, and avoid combining any part of it with Christmas. We had some of his family over for cake and ice cream on the evening of the 27th. It was a lot of fun, and the kids really enjoyed Payton's new ball pit.

This year I made Devry a basketball cake. It was really fun and easy to make!





The kids helped Devry blow out his candles.

It was a really fun evening. The next day, Devry and I dropped Payton off to a babysitters and went and ate lunch in Idaho Falls. We ate at Red Robin, Devry's favorite. Since it was his birthday, he got a coupon for a free meal, plus we had a $3 off coupon, so our entire meal was only $6! Such a good deal, and SOO yummy.

We ran a few errands in Idaho Falls then picked up Payton. We all enjoyed some more cake and homemade blizzards that evening. It was a fun day!
