Happy Birthday Isaac!

Who doesn't love a good surprise on their birthday?

Each year I try to do a little something-something for Isaac to make his special day a little more memorable.

I had been planning on surprising Isaac with a The Office themed house when he came home from work and it went swimmingly.  If you're planning on doing an Office themed party check out amazon for the "It Is Your Birthday." banner.

The banner is from amazon and I got the balloons and streamer at Party City.  I couldn't capture the right picture of the whole kitchen but I put balloons and streamer from the ceiling, as well. 

I haven't made a cake in SO LONG!  Let alone, the decorations.  Luckily one of my best friends is a phenomenal baker and she walked me through the process over the phone.

Ok, I had never mad Jell-O before and didn't realize how long it takes to set!  I started the process in the morning and when Isaac got home at 7pm it still wasn't chilled.  Oh, well.  It's the thought that counts.

This is one of my favorites.

The birthday boy!

I absolutely love planning and executing things like this.  It adds such a personal and thoughtful detail.

And if you're thinking "You didn't get him anything?!"  I did.  I also surprised him with tickets to tribute bands for Van Halen and Bon Jovi at the Aztec Theatre.
