Obsessed with: birthdays

I am definitely one of those people who love birthdays, not only my own but others around me.  Last week was Darren's birthday.  We made him a little party in the house, no major guest list there, just the 4 of us, and Dexter of course.  We kept it super simple.

We bought a chocolate cake at the market and decorated it with strawberries.

We decorated the "birthday chair" and chandelier with beads. 

 

We usually eat dinner at the dining room table, but instead we ate at the kitchen table. 

It was super cozy and fun. 

We made a beautiful birthday sign. 

The birthday guest got to wear at special hat. 

We made his favorite dinner. 

Whole wheat pasta w. turkey bolognese

Okay, maybe his favorite is real pasta w. meat sauce but a healthier version is okay too. 

We ate the cake. 

We also had a musical presentation. 

Notice the beautiful backdrop.
