We celebrated Brad turning 40 back in August! We celebrated him over a few weeks, but this post is all about his special day!

Brad is 39!
This year Brad was able to celebrate his 39th birthday at home with us unlike last year! Melody picked out the theme for his birthday back in February. She picked G.I. Joe. Her love for G.I. Joe has really grown over the last year, so she had fun with the theme.
Brad's Birthday Dinner
So while we celebrated Brad’s birthday after he arrived home for his long work trip, we celebrated his dinner the weekend after. He wanted to give Texas de Brazil a try. We love eating there, but with COVID, we had not been there in person in around two years.
Brad is 38!
Brad turned 38 back in August, but we were just able to celebrate with him earlier this week. Melody had a Mickey themed picked out for him way back in May, and she has kept it a secret the entire time! She may have went a little overboard, but since he wasn’t home for his actual birthday, I felt like it was worth it!
Best Dad Trophy
When I asked Melody what craft she wanted to make for Brad for his birthday, she asked to make him a trophy. While that would be a perfect thing for Brad to make using his 3D printer, my Silhouette was going to be tricky. I did come up with a design to make one from paper that would stand up, but it failed. But I did keep the trophy itself I made and it is now just a paper one. And Melody (and Brad) still loved it.
My Dad Rocks
One of Brad’s presents for his birthday was a fun and very hard craft I had Melody make for him before she went back to school. I made the template on my computer, and as we worked on it, I had to keep adding space because she has such big hand writing. It was a really adorable craft though, and I think Brad loved it.
Cinemark Private Watch Party
To start the week of celebrating Brad’s birthday, we visited our local movie theater for a private watch party. For approximately $100 you can rent an entire theater. You can pick a movie from their list, and then you can bring up to 20 friends. It’s a great deal for a group of friends wanting to go to the movies but remain socially distant from other people and have some privacy.
Brad is 37!
On Sunday we celebrated Brad during 37! Unfortunately it did not live up to the hype of last year’s birthday at Disney, but the pandemic had other plans. (Ironically we were supposed to be at Disney World this week.). We celebrated at home with a lot of Brad’s favorite foods (that aren’t McDonald’s or Wendy’s). I think he had a great laid back, relaxing day of celebrating.
