Needless to say, it was a complete surprise to Dan (he got to sleep in until 8:30, which is really late for him!!!) and I surprised him with breakfast in bed. I was very proud with myself, especially when he said they were the best pancakes he had ever had! I am lucky to have such a wonderful husband. The rest of the day was spent relaxing. He opened some presents and we watched the Star Wars marathon on Spike TV. The birthday dinner with his family was wonderful. We always have fun spending time with our niece and nephew. When we came home we had a piece of the birthday cake I made.
Dan's birthday was so important, not only to the birthday boy, but also to me. This was the first time I got to celebrate my "husband's" birthday. I got to spend a whole day making the most important person in my life feel special and loved, I gained a new appreciation for Star Wars, and I got to practice my cooking skills. I can proudly say, it was a wonderful birthday for my wonderful husband.
