Gabe's Birthday part Deux

I believe that Gabe had a great birthday. Not only did he wake up to his doorway and the kitchen decorated for his birthday he got to open one really cool present from us that morning too. He got a Star Wars t-shirt that he had been eyeing for a while.

Gabe loves this shirt so much he has asked several times in the last couple of days when I will be able to do laundry again so that he can wear his shirt.

One tradition in our house is that the birthday person gets to choose the dinner for their special night. And what other food would you choose for your birthday that pizza. We've been making homemade pizzas for several years now and this is what Gabe wanted. Matt has brought him over to the darkside with his pepperoni, banana pepper, black and green olive, sausage, and cheese pizza. I am so glad we have graduated from just cheese. After the pizza was consumed we all enjoyed Gabe's football cake.

It's too bad we couldn't get orange or blue football guys for his cake. But he didn't seem to care.

While the pizza was cooking we opened presents. And Gabe was certainly not disappointed. He got some new sports decorations for his room and a Nerf game for his Wii. He also got a Nintendo DS which his mom keeps taking so that she has something to do while she is stuck in bed. He's even said he's going to save his money and buy his mom a DS so that I will stop taking his. All in all he had a great birthday.
