Early Birthday Surprise!

Bill surprised me with a nice family Sunday dinner and cake and ice cream after. (Megan brought the cake.) It was a really stormy day and many of our shingles came off of our roof!! It also made this horrible banging sound as the shingles bounced on top of our roof-- we have a lot that just blew off! We have to call the company tomorrow. THEN, Bill forgot about some almonds in the oven that were roasting and the oven caught on fire blowing flames and smoke/soot ALL OVER and behind the stove backsplash. I cleaned it up as best I could, once we got the fire out, but there is a pretty good amount of staining on the stove from it. It caused quite a stir waking up Logan who was napping in the music room when the smoke detector went off. (It went off AFTER we got the fire out!) What a completely crazy day!! But because of the storm, it was so cool and nice outside this evening with a breeze. We went out there and just sat and visited while Lukey Bear played with his golf club and balls. It felt so nice! What a day! My birthday isn't until Friday, but I got quite a bit of bang for my buck today-- no more birthday celebrations needed!
