This past Saturday was Avril's 26th birthday, and the last birthday in our family until Kenny's in June. She started the day with a cuddle with Hannah.
Cuddling with Hannah is a great way to start any day.
I had to work in the afternoon, so we celebrated at lunch again, just as we did for my birthday and Alex's birthday. Avril's parents came by to help us celebrate. Avril was nice enough to request my favourite meal for her birthday feast: roast beef dinner. The cake was a team effort. It was a recipe neither of us had used before. I made the actual cake, and Avril decorated it with strawberries, whipped cream, and a chocolate glaze. It was very tasty.
After we ate, Avril got her presents.
I know what you're thinking: "Mike, you bought yourself a video game and justified a frivolous purchase by disguising it as a birthday present for you wife? For shame!" I'd just like to say that Avril likes playing video games just as much as I do, and she has been a fan of the Prince of Persia series since I bought The Sands of Time when we were newly weds. That game was 100% her choice.
So, that was the end of our early Spring Birthday Blitz. Now we can relax until June. Happy birthday, Avril! I love you!

You look great, ADM.
Your cake looks very delish.
