Happy Birthday Randy!

Today was Randy's birthday. He turned 28! Randy's not into big celebrations for his birthday so we kept it low key. He did specifically ask for a "simple" cake. That about KILLED me. You know how I love to get creative with parties and cake! I ended up making him a spice cake in a 9x13 pan with cream cheese frosting. I almost asked if I could at least make it a double layer cake, but decided not to. It's his birthday, not mine, right?! I did however put up the Happy Birthday banner. :) That is tradition and it's not going to change!

He thought all he was getting was a new outfit but I surprised him with a remote to his PS3! Here are some pics. He is such a stink with pictures. Randy will NOT take a normal picture. Ever. Even in his high school yearbook, EVERY SINGLE picture he is in he's pulling some weird face or doing something weird. Haha! My family can attest to his weirdness in pictures. It's really funny. I think he gets nervous or something. :)

Anyway, we celebrated after we had all had naps (which is why the bad hair) and after the Jazz lost. :( Sad face for Randy. (Notice his sweet green Jazz shirt? He is a die hard fan.)

This is where I told him, "don't be gay."
I forgot. His only other request other than a simple cake was he wanted a Coke. Haha! We've been weaning ourselves off the carbonated goodness and have been doing good but every now and again it's ok to cheat.
Haha! I told you. He was pretending to be mad at his surprise present. 

There are so many things that I love about him! He's a great husband, and an awesome Dad. We have such a good time together. I love just talking with him. He's my best friend. Every day he makes me laugh somehow! If you were to be in our house with us you'd probably think we're weird because we have a lot of inside jokes that we reference all the time! Even Macey is in on a lot of them. :D On my wall in the kitchen is the quote "The most wasted of all days is one without laughter". I love that. It's really true. Even when we're stressed out of our minds, we still find a way to make each other laugh and make our marriage work. 

Happy Birthday, Randy!!


P.S. I asked Macey what we should get Daddy for his birthday... she sat for a while and thought. Then she says, "I KNOW! How about a SCOOTER with BYU on it?" Awww. I thought that was so cute. Something she loves AND Daddy loves. Randy liked it, too.

You 2 are perfect together. I love that he makes you laugh even when it's stressful at your house.
