Happy birthday to the love of my life!! Today, Tyler turned 23 years old. I’m glad we are the same again. Tyler has been teasing me since I turned 23 because I was older then him for that month and a half. What a turkey! But I love that turkey and today we celebrated by doing all the things Tyler loves doing.
We started by trying to sleep in. We did the best we could but I know we were both awake before 8. We laid there until about 9 when we finally had enough.
Tyler requested special pancakes for breakfast. Special pancakes are regular pancakes with chocolate chips in them. I washed the fry pan and started mixing the batter. I had all the dry ingredients ready to go when Tyler mentioned, “Hey, don’t you need milk for that?” I was sad that I didn’t even think about that. Tyler quickly threw together our food menu and we headed out to the store.
We got there and proceeded to put our food into the cart. I’m pretty sure we bought more stuff then what was on our list too. Since it’s Tyler birthday, he got whatever he wanted, which includes a hockey magazine that highlighted the Oilers, and he also wanted some M&M’s. And that will be the last time we buy those because they were pretty expensive for being a little bag of tasty candy. We also bought 10 bags of bread in a box for pretty cheap. It was another exciting trip to the grocery store.
We got home and I finished making the special birthday pancakes for my special birthday husband. They turned out really awesome. Usually my pancakes are runny and really thin, like dollar pancakes but today’s batch was just perfect. The perfect amount of lumps made the perfect tasting pancakes.
I have been a little disappointed in myself since last night. I had a big surprise for Tyler for his birthday. He didn’t know it, but I had emailed his mom to get his most favorite cake recipe at the beginning of the week. I didn’t want to tell him about it because surprises are so much better then knowing what your cake is going to be. Any way, his favorite cake is something his mom is famous for making - strawberry cheese cake. It’s so so oh so good. On Tuesday after work, I went to the store to get all the ingredients for this tasty cake. And here is the embarrassing part - I forgot to buy cream cheese. For the strawberry cheese cake recipe, I forgot the ingredient that makes it a cheese cake. It’s just so silly to forget that. I told Tyler about the surprise last night and that’s when I realized I didn’t have it all. It would have been fine if the store was restocked today, but it wasn’t.... So, poor Tyler, didn’t even get a birthday cake on his birthday. And the store doesn’t open until noon tomorrow so it will be a little while before I can make it for him.
I just felt like the worst wife ever. But Tyler made me feel better by teasing me about it... like I say, he’s a turkey :)
This afternoon was spent doing all the things Tyler loves doing. He read his hockey magazine so I decided to play some DDR. I love that game. And I love Tyler, so I let him do his thing.
Tyler played his new hockey game on the wii that he got from his parents. And he just loves that game. That’s what he did pretty much all day. I did a bit of cross stitching. It was a really good day. I made sure Tyler didn’t do anything he didn’t want to do because you should only do things you want to do on your birthday.
The weather was alright today. It wasn’t super warm outside but it wasn’t freezing. There was a really awesome rainbow outside our place. We actually saw the end of it because it went right into the ocean outside our house. It was a pretty spectacular rainbow too, with all the colors and then some.
And our evening has been really good too. We are watching the Oiler game right now and it’s been a good game. Tyler intends on playing more hockey after the real game is over.
My night doesn’t end soon at all. I was called in to guard tonight. I was asked to be the guard supervisor as the current one is moving out of the province. I thought it would just be filling out a bit of paper work but nope, I have to cover when no one else wants to guard. And it kind of sucks because I have a full time job and a lot of other guards don’t. It doesn’t make much sense how every one of the other 12 people who could guard, don’t. I can’t even say no. I’m already regretting saying yes to that. It’s going to be a very long night for me.
I just got off the phone with my mom. It’s always great to talk with family. Tyler knows all about that today. He’s been getting birthday wishes all day from friends and family.
It’s been a good day, minus the Oiler blowing a lead and now playing in OT. Oh well, it’s not the end of the world.
Happy birthday Tyler. I love you so much. It’s been a great day and I hope to have another fantastic year with you.
Son
