Daddy's birthday bake-a-thon!

It would be safe to say that yesterday was an 18-hour bake-a-thon. My dear husband is celebrating his birthday today, so yesterday (with Daddy gone for fifteen hours), the girls and I made four loaves of bread (two wheat and two cinnamon raisin), one chocolate truffle Bundt cake, a lot of mini meatloaves and some very special birthday cards for Daddy.

My oven was on ALL day!

Our house smelled delicious!

And, we got all our schoolwork done.

I enjoy being home in the winter; so don’t mind spending the entire day inside. I love that my littles enjoy snuggling, reading books and baking with me. A whole day to ourselves is a luxury! Though I wish my husband were home, I still relish the opportunity to share these days with my girls. I know it will not always be this way …

But today is my sweet husband’s birthday, so, I leave you with some pictures of our yesterday. I am so blessed to have this hardworking man in my life – a man who loves me unconditionally, is the perfect father to our daughters and makes this life of ours not perfect, but perfect for us. Happy birthday, to the love of my life!
