Clinton's Birthday! 8-31-11

It is Clinton's Birthday today! He is 48 years young. He is one awesome guy! I really like having him around. On Sunday we had a birthday dinner for him. Tyson, Courtnie, Kaden, Emma, Kimberly and Chelsi were here to help us celebrate. For his dinner we had sweet & sour meatballs, baked potatoes, cole slaw, rolls & jam. For dessert I made his favorite cake, a german chocolate cake from scratch. It has been a tradition for years that his mom make it for him. This year I had to step up and do it. A little later that evening we had cake and ice cream with the family from Sugar City. As you can see, grandpa had help blowing out his candles.
I had a secret. I secretly went to Jackson Hole with my friends, Cari & Sherry, to buy Clinton his birthday gift. We found a cool cowboy hat there a few weeks ago that he really liked. So I went back to get it for him. He has no idea what I am doing. It is going to be a big surprise. While I was there with my friends, we ate lunch at the Merry Piglet Restaurant. It is a Mexican place and it was good. To document our trip we got a picture in front of the elk antlers.
This is Clinton in his new cowboy hat! It looks great on him. He really was surprised. He said he knew something was up, but didn't know what. This is the second time I have surprised him this year. To finish his birthday, we are going to go to Chiz' tonight for dinner. It will be the perfect end to a fun birthday! Happy Birthday Clinton!
