yler and I recently celebrated his 24th birthday! Even though I spent part of his birthday weekend away, I was back in time to fix his birthday dinner: steaks (some of the biggest steaks I've ever seen), corn on the cob, roasted vegetables, and a lemon icebox pie for dessert! One of the easiest meals to make actually, and it was delicious...if I may say so.
Now, technically, we did not have birthday dinner on his birthday. Since his actual birthday was on a Sunday, and he didn't want to celebrate knowing that he had school the next day, we decided to have dinner on Saturday. On Sunday, however, it was another day of celebrating! After sleeping in (and skipping church...shhh don't tell anyone) we drove to Little Rock for the afternoon. We ate lunch/breakfast at Mimi's Cafe (Tyler's choice) and then quickly drove the the movie theatre to see Alice in Wonderland!
The movie was great! We had just finished reading the book, and we were very surprised to find out that the movie was a different story than the book. Even though it was differnet, it was very good, and we were excited to see what Tim Burton had done with the classic.
We got home just in time for handbell practice (Tyler's favorite part of the week) and then, since it would be light outside for a couple more hours...thank you daylight savings...we went on a walk around campus to check out all the construction. We both enjoyed a cup of homemade ice cream and strawberries on our walk, and I would say it was a wonderful way to wrap up the birth-day.
To officially end the day, we continued our watch through The Lord of the Rings trilogy...we're almost done! Soon we will be home for Spring Break, and since I'll look for any excuse to eat out, I think we might have third birthday dinner in Dallas! We can't wait to see our family and friends...SB 2010 here we come!
