Howard celebrated his birthday on August 14th.


When I told the boys about their Dad's birthday, they were so excited! They immediately started to sing the happy birthday song....and Josh said smiling "Birthday Cake???"
And it was a wonderful birthday celebration! Howard and I went to lunch at a nice cafe in Hopewell. The whole family went to pick the cake and ice cream...which the boys cried to hold all the way back home....talk about kids and instant gratification....will they ever get past that stage...I sure hope so.
Here are the cards, Godiva Chocolate and some of the chocolate birthday cake that Howard received...can you guess who is the chocoholic in the family???

This was a really nice surprise....A banner the kids made at their school for their Dad's birthday.

Hope you enjoyed your birthday celebration Honey. We love you! Isn't he just the yummiest.....
