So we have been having a good time the past two days.....the mood in the house is great and happiness is infectious....We have been celebrating Uncle Joel's 31st birthday......His birthday was Friday......So we spent the afternoon with him before he headed up to Austin to whoop it up with his boyz......He really wanted Meatballs for his birthday so Friday I whipped up G-Dad's Spicy Meatballs.....I made a ton.....I was able to make some cocktail ones for Joel before he left for Austin, they were good by the way.......The girls couldn't wait until Saturday to give Joel his presents (which is when we planned to have his party with the cheesecake birthday cake)......So he got to open them on his birthday......Speaking of his party, the girls picked the theme for him....They selected 'The Little Mermaid"......and boy did they have fun shopping at Party City for the decorations.....They picked out Ariel rings for themselves and Uncle Joel, streamers, balloons, banner, plates, cups, napkins and a Little Mermaid Candle for his cake........They even had more fun decorating this morning....and couldn't wait for Uncle Joel to come back from Austin.....and man were they excited to see him......So excited they were ready to eat dinner right when he got home so we could "Start" the party.....and because we were still celebrating Joel's B-Day on the menu for dinner was Meatball Subs....Uncle Joel loved them as did MJ....and the cake too was a big hit.....Homemade New York Cheesecake w/Raspberry Puree' and Bittersweet Chocolate Sauce......Can we say "Holy Yummy!".....It was good......
