A birthday to remember




What a FUN NIGHT! Thursday was my FIL 's birthday and we had him over to our home to celebrate! First we had dinner, which was great. A simple spaghetti dinner but oh so nice to have him here. Then we had a great cake that my hubby made. This was his first and he worked hard! It turned out nice as well, especially the two tubs of frosting he added...Yummm:)



For his gift I bought a hinge lidded box from Dollar Tree, my ALLTIME favorite dollar store and covered it simply with some of our new Amelia papers, tags and ribbon. I used the Bordeoux palette ink pad which matched perfectly and we filled the box with little things we love about Grandpa. It was the most fun to read after cake and ice cream. We all sat around while he smiled and read each note!



It really is the little things. And remembering them makes it all so special. Happy Birthday Grandpa Ken!
