Happy Birthday Husband...

Today is the Husbands Birthday! 26 years old! Crazy. Having a birthday 2 days before Christmas isn't Jarom's most favorite thing, but we made sure to spoil him. Last week, Jarom and I went down to Hurricane to celebrate his birthday with his family. His mom made him his favorite chicken pot pie, but my favorite was that Jarom selected dirt cups for his choice of dessert. Yes, dirt cups. The ones you make when you are in 3rd grade, with chocolate pudding, oreos and gummy worms. They turned out so cute, I wish I would have taken a picture. The kids loved them, and I pretty much think Jarom will be the best dad someday, because lets be honest he is a kid at heart even at 26. :) Jarom's parents totally spoiled us with a bunch of presents to bring home with us for Christmas since we won't be able to go down. Terri made me promise not to open them until Christmas. I'm a woman of my word. They are still wrapped and under the tree....

After having a great time down in Hurricane for the weekend we came home and celebrated again with my family and with Josh since Josh's birthday was on the 20th (Happy Birthday Josh) We went to Tucanos for dinner. For those of you who haven't been there, it is amazing, and it is officially Jarom's new favorite place. It's basically a meat buffet where the servers bring, no bombard you with meat at your table. They bring it to you straight from the grill on skewers and cut it off right in front of you. We tried so much meat. The servers came one after another all night. It was delicious, but I think the grilled pineapple was my favorite. It literally melted in your mouth. The best thing about Tucanos is if you go to their website and sign up for the birthday club (which we did for josh and jarom) they get to eat free.... :) We came back to our place afterwards to open up presents and we, well I, had cheescake for dessert. Everyone else was too full. The boys were literally sprawled out on the floor hoping their food would digest more quickly. I somehow always manage to make room for dessert...

I was feeling terrible because I was supposed to work all day today on Jarom's birthday but things worked out perfectly and I was put on call today so we were able to sleep in, make breakfast, open presents, and we are planning on going to see TRON today. Wahoo! (Thanks work for the free movie passes)!

My next favorite thing about Jarom's birthday is that he shares his birthday with the sweet Prophet Joseph Smith. Check out this picture Jarom took while he was on his mission. It's one of my favorites...

Crazy huh? To my husband: Happy Birthday Jar...I love you! Marrying you was the best decision I've ever made. I hope you have a fabulous day. Thanks for being so perfect for me...

Well, Christmas is in 2 days! I can't wait. All these presents under the tree are killing me. I am the worst. Last week, I did a terrible thing and opened up the pair of jeans Jarom bought me for christmas. In my defense, I didn't have any clean ones to wear and it was date night...and I did re-wrap them afterwards! lol my bad. 2 more days....
