Happy Birthday Jeff

Our very special Dad had a birthday this month. We were so happy that he was in Utah the night before so that we could do some surprise planning. The kids and I decorated the living room and bought him a cake and some presents. It was really a surprise because I told him he could get his new mountain bike for his birthday. He wasn't expecting anything else. He said that he was actually surprised. I think it was a first. He usually gets all present surprises out of me. Yeah we did it!
This looks like a wrestling match, but it is actually Jeff opening presents.

His lovely chocolate, chocolate cake. Jeff was really impressed with the flower on top.



Ryan decorated the presents in crepe paper. Ryan also bought dad a diet coke, 3 musketeers, and taped 85 cents to it. He did it with his own money.



The decorated living room.
Happy Birthday Jeff we love you so much!

Way to surprise him! Travis is the same way. I can never do anything to surprise him. He always seems to find out first. Point for wife!
