Happy Birthday Brian!

Tuesday was Brian's birthday, and we had a great day together. He worked on Monday and took Tuesday off instead, so it was a lot less hectic.

First, I had previously typed up 101 things I love about Brian, and I got up in the middle of the night to cut them up and hide them randomly around the house. I had a great time watching him...I had one taped to the banister and he walked right past it because he saw one taped to a candle at the bottom of the stairs. I also enjoyed his frustration when he was looking right at one and still couldn't find it. (Don't worry, I wasn't mean about it, but it's only fair that the tables were turned for once!)

I told him he couldn't have his birthday breakfast until he found all 101. So here he is putting them in piles of 10 to see how many are left.
Once he had about 10 left, I started making breakfast and he really tried to cheat! He dug some of the scrap papers from out of the trash can and came up and added them to his piles and claimed he had found all 101! I knew he hadn't found the tie one (see picture below), so I knew he was up to something. He claims I'm in for it for my birthday.

This one was one of the most difficult for him to find. I folded the paper up and tucked it in the tag of the tie he wore last Sunday. As you can see from the picture, he has so many ties that even though I told him it was in his ties, it still took him a while to find it. He tried tricking me a few times into thinking he had found it so I would mess up and look to make sure he really had found it. He didn't get me though. Deep down, I know he enjoyed the hunt too!

After the hunt for 101 things, I made the stuffed sandwich French Toast, (with strawberries this time). It was delicious yet again. Kevin and Paul got Brian the Super Smash Brothers Wii Game, so we played that for a while, and then Brian and I went to see Angels & Demons. It was entertaining, but a lot of things were different from the book. Some differences weren't such a big deal (you can't expect them to keep everything the same in that kind of a time frame), but at the end they didn't reveal everything in the movie that the book does. I think they should have, but that's my opinion.

After the movie we went to eat at this new Indian Curry restaurant that Brian recently discovered. Yummy! Then we came home and went swimming/hot tubbing.

It was a perfect day with my hunk of a hubby! Now it's back to business as usual!
Happy Birthday Brian!
