Happy Birthday Mike!

Mike turned 31 today! Michael and I wanted to make it a very special day for him so we...
Picked up a canvas, some paint and some supplies. Michael worked for a good hour painting with sponges, foil, plastic bags, brushes, car wheels, newspaper, forks, a whisk and a toothbrush. (Yes I was totally copying that episode of Jon and Kate Plus Eight).
Here is the final product. Mike said that it was the perfect gift (I think he may have even had tears in his eyes). Its going above our mantel in the T.V. room.

Then we made him his favorite dinner. Tortellini with Tomato Cream Sauce (recipe from Pasta and Company) and green beans.
Dinner was followed by delicious cupcakes from Metro Market.
Yum!
We hope you had a great birthday Mike. We love you!!!

Awesome - it's obvious Michael has talent, but how much white space did you have to fill in Mommy? I cannot wait to see it above your mantle...it belongs there, and I've never seen a sweeter gift for a Dad. Happy Birthday Mike!
