Kent's 28th

Instead of a cake for Kent's birthday I decided to surprise him with a home made apple pie. The only problem was I had never made a pie before in my life, through I have watched my mother make pies growing up. So I decided I would attempt, though my baking skills are sketchy. I had my mother on the phone with me throughout the process.

My biggist problem was it did not seem as if I had enough dough for the crust. I tried to roll it out really super thin to stretch it but still it barely covered the pie, so no beautiful pie crust edging, oh well.

This is a pic of my first apple pie baked for my dear husband. Yea. It tasted awfully good too!

Then for his birthday we headed up to hike one of the four peaks but sadly there was a road block and no way for us to reach it our long planed for hike. We will have to do it another time.

Instead we just walked around the mountains for awhile and enjoyed the beauty of the day and the lovely tarantulas, the size of our hands, we saw creeping along the road.
Lastly it is our little tradition to go out to eat on our birthdays. So I had Ken't choose a place to eat. He chose Happy Food. I thought, what is Happy Food? Very strange, who would even name a restaurant "Happy Food." Then it made since when he explained he had been wanting to try out this little hole in the wall Chinese food place for awhile. Yep, the food was very happy that the place was very hole in the wall. We'd go again.
