13,148, 719.2 minutes

That is how old Alex is!!! Can you believe it? He had his 25th birthday on Sunday!
We started his birthday off with Olive Garden on Saturday and our waiter was really awesome!
She brought him an extra plate of olives and a candle in his Olive Garden mint - with a song by her and 4 of her fellow tone-deaf friends!
The next morning was Sunday, the big day, so I decided to surprise him with blueberry muffins - his favorite (other than cereal...)
After church Alex had several messages waiting for him, all wishes for a fabulous day!
Then we made home made pizza, mm mmm GOOD!
We seriously love our pizza stone
Our special plate, for the special person, on their special day!!
Thanks Ryan and Jenny - many memories will be made with this plate
Time for the gifts - hair gel, controller things and a new blue controller.
He was SO surprised
Alex and I aren't really cake or pie people but we LOVE our brownies - it's best we didn't use candles
But he was REALLY surprised when I dished it up with his favorite - mint chocolate chip ice cream. He couldn't figure out how he didn't see it in the freezer - I'm that good ;)
This brings so many options to Alex now that he's 25, the most exciting thing for him is being able to rent a car!! haha Really though, I want to wish my husband the happiest year being 25!! Don't forget you also get a discount on your car insurance now :)
