Happy Jordan Day!

Today is the man of the house's birthday and we've had a great day. We picked Rio up from preschool and went out for lunch. The cutest little old couple sat next to us and ooohed and ahhhed the kids the whole meal! Then we headed over to the Shaw Ocean Discovery Centre to check out some local sea life. The kids were all incredibly well behaved through the whole outing, making it very enjoyable for the grown ups.

When we got home, Rio and I proceeded to make the birthday boy's dinner - butternut squash ravioli (from scratch I'm proud to say!), roasted asparagus, and to follow, coconut lime angel food cake. Cooking for Jord always stresses me out, but the birthday boy at least pretended he liked it, even if the presentation was...well....lacking. What can I say, when you have a gourmet cook taking most of the cooking load, you get a bit out of practice!

The day will finish with us putting the kids to bed (soon!) and our friend coming over for wine and a second course of cake. Excellent day for the whole family!

Happy 3-4 super dad. We love you!

Of course they were ooohing and ahhhing your cuteness!
