HUBBY'S BIRTHDAY!

It was my husband's birthday yesterday (he turned 38) and we weren't sure what we were going to do for dinner because of the situation that I posted about yesterday. Since the kids and I were totally fine to "go out" meaning no trace of anything..nada, we decided to go to dinner at his favorite Mexican restaurant. This is not a "fast food" Mexican place, it is totally authentic!! The food is yummy, and my kids love it there too! I didn't even have time to make him a cake, so he just went without one. Thank goodness he doesn't mind about stuff like that! I wanted to do more for him (like have a party), but with the crazy last few days we've had, everything pretty much got put on hold! Well, I can plan for a big "40" in a couple of years, right?

Don't these nachos look slammin'? Both of my girls ordered their own!

Fajitas baby! I also had a plate of the rice & beans!

My husbands plate! LOL, it tasted better than it looks!

My oldest son and Daniel always order the cheese enchiladas except Daniel gets his "a la cart" without the beans and rice!

Then, you have Eli, who always orders just a plain hamburger!!! LOL!

There is drama behind this picture! Isaiah didn't know where to set our to go boxes down, and by this time, the kids were barely cooperating when I wanted to take their picture!

Hope your Hubby had a nice birthday. You can never go wrong with Mexican. The food looks so yummy! Too bad they didn't serenade him with one of those BIG sombreros. I'm sure you would have taken a pic of that!
