Yesterday, Friday, November 2, 2012, was Dave's 50th Birthday and our 8th Anniversary.
Traveling made it very challenging trying to plan a 'surprise' for him since we were together basically 24-7 for the last 3 weeks. But, I did manage to pull off a little bit, with the help of some dear friends.
Jennifer Stine helped me order, pick up, and deliver the cakes.
My sister, Vicki Dike, and our brother Tim Veseling, drove 2 1/2 hours bringing decorations, flowers, presents, and a party.
Many friends sent presents and cards that were collected at our house while we were in Canada and given to Dave in a big bundle to open on Saturday.
Then there was Vicki Vest, Zen's mom. She took much time and many photos to make a slide show presentation '50 Shades of Dave.' It was awesome, and after I videotaped Dave watching it for the first time, I set up the computer and left it on a loop for anyone to watch. It was quite a hit. I will try to set up a link to it or embed it in here.
We had a nice dinner, with Vicki, Tim, and Jeanne Woods. Of course they screwed up Dave & my dinners, but food is secondary, it was the togetherness that was important, and much enjoyed.
