Today Derek turned 35! Sophie made him a Nutella cake from her families recipes in Germany. It was a really messy process, but well worth it! It was really yummy but not too sweet. The at night we invited a bunch of friends over for some food and a white elephant gift for Derek. However, after Jared prank called Derek...another story for another time...we pulled a prank on the husbands and told the wives to make the white elephant gift something important to the husbands. Derek was in on it all and it was sooo funny! He got a Buck Horn from Aaron Johnstun, an autographed baseball (from Jared Michaelson...who was sweating bullets), a highschool picture of Jess Howard with his basketball team(...he was so embarrased) and some really nice football cards from Shawn Gonda. They were all nervous and upset...it was so funny! The wives did good, there were more fun gifts, but those were the funniest! We eventually told them the truth and had fun the rest of the night talking about the reactions and thoughts going on!
I got so busy into the party that I only got a picture of the food and the first guests...the Michaelsons.
