Yesterday my husband turned 29! It's tough enough having a birthday so close to Christmas but on top of that he has had a final exam on his birthday every year for the past 6 or 7 years. This year was no different. So after his 7am test we celebrated with a pancake breakfast with candles, singing Happy Birthday, and opening gifts.
During the day we were able to go on an afternoon date to see a movie. We love dates and it was really nice to just get away together for the afternoon. When we got home we had birthday cake. Matthew isn't really a cake fan so I got him an ice-cream cake which was so yummy!
Later that evening we went to the Scottsdale Train Park. We had some friends invite us and it was such a fun family event. We rode the train and it had tons of different Christmas light scenes during the ride and Austin just loved it. What could be better for a toddler than Christmas lights and a train ride at the same time? He was just giggling the whole time. Then we went on the carousel, got hot chocolate and walked around some of the train sights. I feel bad that I didn't really get any pictures of Matthew during the day on his birthday, but that is kind of how he would rather keep it. But we did get some at the train park!
But back to Matthew's birthday, he really is so wonderful. He has stuck through these long weeks of med school and can now enjoy a break for the holidays. Austin and I love having him around!

Sounds like a fun birthday! Looks like you are fairly bundled up. Was that because it really was kind of cold or did you just want to dress the part? ;)
