Eric Turns 33!!

Yesterday, Eric turned the big 33! Sadly he had school all weekend with 2 big projects and presentations to present. He said both went well and he and I are both extremely grateful that they are over. One of his presentations was for his Capstone project. He has been working on it for months now and after working 12 hour days lately, he would come home and spend a couple hours working on his project and presentation at night. I feel like we survived a major milestone in his education and I am so proud of him for working so hard and doing so well. I am proud of myself for not pulling all of my hair out!
Since Eric was at school, we did a little birthday celebrating without him. I took the kids to Krispy Kreme for a Daddy birthday breakfast. 


 Gwen loved watching the doughnuts go through the wall of frosting. 
They anxiously waited for Daddy to get home from school that afternoon. They decorated the house with balloons and signs. As soon as he unpacked from his weekend away, they insisted it was present time!


 Gwen is totally into birthdays right now and helped Daddy open his new camera for his trip to Europe in a few weeks. 

 This picture kills me!! I can't get enough of it! Tessa made her Daddy a special birthday card and taped money from her piggy bank all over it. He opened and yelled, "I'm rich!!". Tessa could not have been more thrilled with his reaction!

 Adam also made a card with some piggy bank money and a coupon for one free day of playing with the kids. Lucky Daddy!!
 He also got some new luggage for his trip. 
 We made his favorite birthday cheesecake and got him his favorite ice cream. Gwen couldn't wait to sing, "Cha Cha Cha!"

 He got all 33 candles in one blow!
Happy birthday to the most wonderful husband and daddy!! We love you and are so proud of you!!
