The last gift was my brain child that I thought of months ago and have been so excited to give hime! Those of you who know Mike know that he appreciates a finely pressed shirt, so much so that he pulls out the ironing board every night and irons his shirt for the next day. He aspires for the day that we have a budget that can accomodate dry cleaning all his shirts. So after Mike went to work, I pulled all of his shirts out of his closet and the dirty clothes and took them to the dry cleaners and had them rush the shirts! When he came home I made him play hot and cold to find the shirts and his face was the greatest when he found them in the front closet! I think it was his best present by far! We then went to iHop for dinner (Mike loves a good dose of breakfast grease) and then came home for his traditional German Chocolate cake!! I love you, honey!! Happy Birthday!

Matt too can't wait for the day that our budget allows us to take all his shirts to the dry cleaners. But he doesn't iron his, so he usually goes wrinkly.
Iron? What's that? :) We actually gave away many of Brandon's shirts that were horribly wrinkly and get only wrinkle free now. sigh.
How old do your children have to be before you can you teach them to iron? :)
That looks very similar to an event at your house last summer, with the same cake and cake plate. Yummy cake!
Dry cleaning would be a fancy thing do with your shirts regularly. I love that it was a special treat for his birthday.
