The girl's Grandpa and Grandma arrived around 4pm to be here in time to celebrate CK's birthday! Although they had planned to arrive the week before, Connie was sick so they delayed but made a point to be here for CK's big day which I know he really loved! The girls were SO excited to see their grandparents and kept asking every five minutes when they would be here. I happened to see them pull into our circular driveway, so told them they were here which made them squeal and run outside! They were SO excited to see them! CK got home shortly after that and we started making birthday dinner. CK made a really lovely dinner for us one random Saturday night and it was honestly better than any restaurant, so we decided to replicate it. He grilled filet mignons on our grill with asparagus while I boiled and mashed new potatoes. I don't know what he does with the steaks, but they are perfect! We ate dinner, which was outstanding while hearing about the drive out from Florida. After our meal, we sang happy birthday and had cake. Market Street had this amazing creation which marries both of CK's favorites. It's cheesecake on the bottom with a layer of red velvet on top, then frosted with a fluffy whipped cream frosting. It was pure heaven!
After cake and ice cream, CK opened him presents. He got an awesome quilted jacket from his parents which looks perfect on him. It's such his style and fits him like it was made specifically for him! The girls gave him a new button down shirt and I gave him a blue striped scarf and socks. I actually ordered him something else but when it hadn't arrived the day before his birthday I went to Nordstrom's Rack and got him things I thought he needed (socks) and would be a fun new thing (scarf). After, we put the girls to bed and then stayed up and talked. It was really a fun birthday celebration!
