Last Saturday Jeff celebrated his 29th birthday on the 29th of January. We had his friends over for a poker party to celebrate his special day. We spent most of the day cleaning and re-organizing to fit in two large poker tables in our quaint living/dining room. I made lots of food for Jeff's special day: chicken tortilla soup, a big sub sandwich, tortellini pasta salad, a veggie tray, and artichoke dip. Some of our friends also brought cookies and rice krispy treats so there was plenty of food for everyone.
The birthday boy and his baby girlWe started the game around 7:00 p.m. and the last people didn't leave until 3:00 a.m.! It was so nice to see everyone and Jeff really enjoyed himself.
With it being cold and flu season we thought it was best for Nicholas to hang out in his room and watch some DVDs and he was perfectly content to watch some of his favorite movies with his stuffed puppy pal, Henry. Lots of our guests stopped in say hello to him which made him very happy.
Unfortunately, luck was not with Jeff on his birthday because he didn't end up winning the poker game, but he had a great time socializing with his friends after he lost all his chips.
In fact, Jeff and Kris started their own game of Scrabble on the iPad...
and played with Ella.
Jeff's very best friend Jordan, was in town from Australia and Jeff was so happy that he came by to help celebrate his birthday. Ella was just excited to taste his jacket :)
Happy birthday, honey! You are the light of my life and the joy of my heart. Cheers to the last year of your 20's!

Happy belated birthday Jeff! Don't worry you can keep celebrating this one for several more years!! : )
Sounds like the party was a big hit! You guys are blessed with so many great friends--so nice to see! You've mentioned your chicken tortilla soup a few times now. It sounds very yummy. Do you mind sharing that recipe as I'm always looking for new tried, tested, and true recipes. Thanks!
