Colin's 31st Birthday

This past weekend we celebrated Colin's birthday. The weekend before that we took a trip to see the Perkins, who graciously kept the kids for an entire Saturday while I took Colin on a surprise getaway to Asheville, NC (Biltmore, massage, dinner at a brewery)!

Anyways, on his actual birthday I made french toast (per Colin's request) and he opened his oversized present. For years I've been eyeing the Star Wars LED Death Star Wall Art from Pottery Barn Kids. I knew Colin would enjoy having it. It's way cooler than any "kid" stuff. ;) This was the year!




Despite the fact this cake looks like it's for Halloween, it's actually Colin's requested yellow cake with chocolate frosting from a can, and because I insist on having some kind of decoration, this year he chose Reeses Pieces.











31 candles later...










Colin spent the day creating built-in shelves for our media closet:


Here's the end result:



And the Death Star in his office:
