Today was not just your typical Monday, but a very special day in the Check Household ... Sara's 30th birthday. Due to Miss Emma, Sara chose to take a raincheck on a party and we just decided to celebrate as a family. I couldn't let her get by without a little party atmosphere in the house though. (Excuse the sloppiness, but I had to do this in the wee hours of the night for the surprise effect)
The original plan was to go out and eat, but since it was so cold out, we got takeout from Applebee's. Little disappointed with the service (no marinara, only one kiddie burger), but we had a good dinner. And it allowed us more room to enjoy some cake. As you can tell from the pictures, Lily had a great time celebrating Mama's birthday too! Fortunately, because Sara's friends Melissa and Elizabeth also made Sara some homemade treats, we will be well stocked in the sugar dept for the rest of the week.
Just a low key birthday, but I know Lily and Dada had a great time spending it with Sara. We are so lucky to have such a wonderful wife and mom (even a year older now).
