Happy Birthday to You!!

Happy Birthday to my sweet hubby! My husband's birthday was this past Monday (Aug. 18). He turned 24...FINALLY as old as me!! ;) The Saturday before, we celebrated by first going to Chick-fil-A for breakfast. Then we went golfing...I never golf, which explains why I hit a house. Strangely enough, Wes told me it was my best shot of the day because I "popped" the ball up in the air- something he had been trying to teach me on previous holes. Considering the golfers behind us had to yell "fore!!" a couple times (AFTER the ball almost hit us)...I felt pretty good about myself by the end of the game.

The next day, we had Wes's family over for his birthday lunch after church. I decided I would make him a cake and icing from scratch for the first time. I had printed off two different recipes...one for the cake and one for what I thought was strawberry cream cheese icing. Well, I made the cake with no problems. Then I made the "icing," which took me about 30 minutes (note to self: icing should not take that long to make). I then discover that what I have made is strawberry cheesecake ICECREAM!! This was after I spilled it everywhere. I did think it was weird that you had to put icing in the freezer, but due to my lack of experience as a cake-maker, I decided to go with it. After another trip to the grocery store, I finally got it right...
