Happy Birthday Emily!!



For 23 years today the world has been blessed to have Emily in it! (this is Mark writing, she'd never say that!) We realized a couple of days after reserving our airline tickets that we'd get to celebrate Em's birthday in Illinois.
After going to church today we came home and took a nap, then got dinner ready. As per tradition in both of our homes, Emily got to choose our meal... we had steak, baked sweet potatoes with cinnamon sugar, roasted asparagus, rolls and a spinach salad. It was YUMMMMMY! My parents host the ward choir practice every Sunday so we went for a walk while the ward sang and, once they were gone, we broke out the home-made chocolate cheesecake with cherry topping... mmmmmm... anyway, it was delicious.
It was a fun opportunity that we had to have Jordan, my friend from High School and our mutual friend, over for Em's celebration. He's great to have around. After we consumed the scrumptious food we sat down for some games, both Wii and board games.
I'd have to say it was a great birthday and I think she agrees. :)

Happy Birthday late. Sorry I forgot. But it sounded like you had a great time.
