I live and breathe for this man.special birthday surprises were had this weekend. unfortunately no surprise party, but a semi-surprise jaunt up to meet my bloggy friend, jen {she is a cute runner blogger and has a cute family blog as well!} and crash her peach days bbq and ride her horses. let me tell you one thing about pete. he loves horses. loves them. I had no idea until that fateful day in costa rica. his inner cowboy spilled out and he's been dying to get back on and ride ever since. they say he's a natural. it was a fun little adventure and I'm glad jen and her family were so willing to share it with us.
his birthday dinner was a special surprise as well. I cooked fish. yes, you heard me. I cooked fish. this is a first for me. remember? and it was surprisingly easy + delicious. I'm not so scared of cooking fish anymore. the meal was rounded out with some long grain and wild rice, roasted vegetables, and steamed cabbage. of course there was the traditional red velvet cake. what birthday is complete without that?

You've just described one of my favorite guys! He's been awesome since the day he was born. I know, because I was there.
It was so fun meeting you and having you come ride horses with us. You are welcome anytime and maybe we'll even get to run together someday. You're so sweet to find a great "present" for his inner cowboy.
Happy (belated) birthday to Pete! It makes my heart happy to see you so in love and with such a great guy. Now if only I got to see you guys more often...
I sooo remember the day he was born. Can't believe it's been 29 years!
