~Celebrating Mr. Husband Part 2~Cake~Candles~Joy~

Believe it or not, 

I kinda think the cake was even better this year!

*

I will try to do a post later on about how I did

this year's cake....

I love the moment when Mr. Husband comes

out to the dining room and I've lit the

7 candles... 

I lit one at a time with different prayers for him... 

His final 4 presents...

7 seemed to be a theme as that was how many 

he unwrapped this year...

*

He got two more bars of vegan chocolate,

one with ginger and one with chili

and some trader joes jelly beans.

*

And two more books, shown below :)

I love our birthday table this year!

We had scrimp for his birthday,

with peanut sauce, rice, Indian junk food 

and salad.

It was such a joy!

Cleo decided she wanted to try sitting on one

of my knitting baskets.

I took the picture then took her off and 

gently explained to her that the basket

is really not strong enough for her to do that again... :)

First edition with dust jacket,

Chesterton on Dickens! 

And 4th printing first edition of 

Chesterton's book 

the Thing. :)

We are bringing cake and cupcakes to church

tomorrow to continue the celebration

and it's been a wonderful week of 

being thankful for my Mr. Husband and his birth!
