The Dexter

First Off, Happy Birthday to my wonderful husband!  He is now officially closer to 30 than he is to 20 (his words!)  His parents were so nice and went to Grandview, MO to pick up his present since A) We don't have a vehicle that carries large objects or a trailer for that matter & B) I can't drive stick shift (their vehicle that can pull a trailer!)

Since we got our house, he has been very enthusiastic about finishing the basement and putting a ping pong table down there.  I just so happened to find a KILLER deal on a brand new table, so TA-DA...

 

Notice how alert Miss Bailey is - her new favorite game is to try to catch the ball as it flies by her face.  Or she will crawl under the table and stand there until you look for her - what a spaz!

He also got some Star Wars items...

Star Wars Mad Libs

Star Wars Pancake molds!  Saturday morning activity!

 Unfortunately we were both pretty busy today, so we didn't really get to see each other or celebrate the Bday today.  Monday he took off work and went on the first 'Disc Golf Tour' of Season 4.  (For those of you who don't know, he is a HUGE Disc Golf fan, in fact, they make shirts hence the 'Season 4' comment).  Then today after school it was nice out, so he got to go play again. 
I didn't get home until late tonight, so we compromised and had his B-Day Dinner last night.  Every year I make whatever he requests for his b-day dinner.  This year it was The Dexter.  In the last year, we have really gotten into the show Dexter on Showtime.  It is about a Forensic Crime Scene guy who is also a serial killer - but he only kills the bad guys who are true criminals and he always does his research first to make sure he has the right guy.  (That sounds SO weird when you say it out loud - but I promise it is a REALLY good show!)  Anyways, the intro of the show goes through Dexter's morning routine of cooking/eating breakfast and getting ready: 

We added blueberry waffles because they are our fav - definitely think they should add waffles to the Dexter breakfast!

To end the B-day week, we are heading to Skate World in KC on Saturday.  Then we'll head to Randine's (SIL) to watch the KU game in the theater at her apartment complex!  Can't wait!
