Ben's 39th birthday

Ben, in typical fashion, does not like a big deal made of his birthday.  He is so much more a giver than a receiver.  I initially suggested a dinner with friends but he quickly said no and then his brother said he wanted to treat him to dinner at Bohanan's.  I thought that was not only sweet but a great birthday celebration for Ben...mainly because Andy suggested it and wanted to do something special for Ben.

It remained a surprise as we knew Ben would balk at where Andy and Cheryl wanted to take him.   We celebrated that Friday the 3rd as Ben's birthday was on Easter this year.  So Andy and Cheryl came over with balloons and Ben's favorite dessert...boston cream pie/cake!  It was so cute!  It was decorated with a guitar!  We celebrated with the kids....had the dessert before dinner and then Alexa came over so we could have an adult dinner.

We headed downtown with Ben only suspecting where we were going.  He wasn't completely surprised when we arrived at Bohanan's as its hard to surprise him but he was pleasantly surprised.  We had a great dinner and great evening!  Happy 39th birthday Ben!  Happy last birthday in your 30's!  Can't wait to see what your/our 40's have to offer us!
