Tuesday was Gilbert's 58th birthday.He was 40 years old when we had Ariel.We had decided that we would just do a nice little party at home,due to the fact that our washer had broken and our laundry was in a mountainous pile.So he sacrificially gave up the money for his birthday dinner and bought me a gently used washer and dryer on Craig's list.It is so nice not spending two hours trying to get the washer to go through one load.I love it!
That's one of the things I love so much about my hubby he is very sacrificial like that.Anyway he said he would be happy if I just made him some mexican food.
So Ariel and I went to work in the kitchen to make her daddy the best meal ever.We made homemade taco and tostado shells,Homemade refried beans and spanish rice.We had all the trimmings like lettuce,tomato,cheese,sour cream,guacamole the works.My cousin made a delicious tropical punch and also brought salsa.
This was the plate Ariel and I made up for her daddy.She has been such a huge help in the kitchen lately.
Lining up for the food.
We had so much fun with our cousins playing game and enjoying wonderful food and fellowship.Gilbert was all choked up.(Actually I think he was having allergy problems.)
Happy Birthday to my hubby and best friend!
Glad you had a warm-fuzzy, home-spun Birthday, Gilbert. It's clear how very much your family loves you and how much you love them as well.
