December 12th (Nick's 40th Birthday!!!)

Nick and I went out to lunch at First Watch, his choice. It was yummy!
Then he went back to work and I set up his birthday presents.



We saw this at the Chiefs store and it was $30 more than what I got it for a month ago.
He loved it.
I wrapped individual items, mostly food. 
Him and his crew might be going out of town tomorrow for an out of town job. Waiting to here in the morning if paint checks out.




And a fun 1983 coffee cup to use.
It was a simple at home birthday for Nick on his actual birthday. 
I made him meatloaf patties.
Adelyn had to go to v-ball practice so we are going out to dinner next week with family to celebrate him. 
Happy 40th Birthday Finally!!

 

December 9th (Bass Pro-Carhart Sweatshirts/Elf Movie-Frozen Pizza and Popcorn Dinner)

Nick, Ella and I headed up to Bass Pro to get Carhart Hoodies for Nick's family and workers. We are going to give as Christmas gifts with 360 Construction label on it.
It was decorated so fun.


Elf tonight as a family!
I didn't want to make dinner so this is what we get! Lol. Plus cookie cake and ice cream sundaes!
There is a baby boy underneath that tree.
Tired from going to bed after midnight last night!
Ready for bed early tonight for Nick and I!!

 

December 8th (Nick's 40th Birthday Surprise Night-Chiefs Behind Scenes Tour/Party @ Sharks)

I told Nick earlier this week that he needed to be ready to leave the house by 3 pm. It was a surprise for his birthday. And that him and I were going to go do something together.
He was about to get in the shower, so I gave him a gift to give him a clue. 
He guessed behind the scenes Tour for the Chiefs Stadium.
Lets go!
Next surprise was pulling in to the parking lot to see Rob and Eva.
Nick said he didn't want any surprises, but this was after the fact that I planned this whole evening. Hopefully he isn't too mad about everything! I did things he would like??! Oh geez.
(Nick told me he is going to stop smoking cigarettes when he turns 40 which is in a few days, the twelfth. Any who he has been not the happiest and has been drinking a lot worrying about what he promised!)
I am the only one that went on a tour with the schools with Adelyn in 5th grade. I am sure this tour will be a bit different as well. Lets go have some fun.






There were some Bills fans on our tour, since there is a game on Sunday here. They were all very impressed with our stadium and all the nostalgia that we have here in KC!!




We got to go inside this suite, only $300,000 a season and it doesn't include food and beverage! You know, no big deal! Geez.
Inside the suite.
Funny picture inside the suite with Mahomes.
Walking through were they serve the food and drinks, so much easier without all the people in here. Lol.

I haven't been to a game in many years. 
The tunnel the Chiefs players run down.
The tunnel where Taylor Swift comes through as well, nice!

Going onto the field!
It really is the coolest experience going out onto the field!






You feel so small down here on by the field.



Yay how cool. Rob is a huge Chiefs fan as well.

Happy Birthday!
(He got to where his new Chiefs shoes he calls them, yellow and white!)


The benches the players sit in.

Love you honey! Hope you are enjoying yourself.







Giving us the gang sign for 40! Ha.

Going in where the Chiefs go in at half time!

The bar near the locker room.
We snuck in the locker room with another group and that group leader didn't like it! Lol.
I came when Adelyn was in 5th grade and they hadn't changed it in here yet. Now it looks super fancy with leather! 

Kelce, yes please!





Better shot with Kelce Locker area!
Cool looking ceiling in here too!
We didn't see this or it's new from when I went with Addie.


Super bowl trophies!



That was a lot of fun! We all had a good time.
Eva liked this fringe Chiefs Jacket, all their stuff was jacked up in price at the store at the stadium. 
Well our tour got done early so I had to text Lisa and Ruth to hurry up to decorate at Shark's Bar for Nick's surprise 40th Birthday.
They got their and got it all ready.
Nick ended up figuring out what I was doing on the way to Shark's. Ugh. He wasn't happy at first with me, but then ended up loving the party.
A lot of his friends he hasn't seen in a while made it out to see him!



My secret helpers, thanks so much!
Max and Theo came for a little bit with their parents. He ran to give Uncle Nick a big hug.
Brock is here with his wife! Nick was so surprised.
I ordered a bunch of appetizers.

A.B.'s new girlfriend, Sarah that Lisa went to school with.
Laurie and Rob are here. Yay!
Jeff and Grant too.
Roy, A.B., Sarah, Lisa, Brock and his wife
April, Ruth and Eva.
Jerry, Rob and Nick.
(They all work together)
Sorry to surprise you honey, but I know you enjoyed it. 
Don't worry wont do another surprise party again!!


I got a cookie cake from Sam's club made up.
Found these on Amazon. Ha.
And these I thought were perfect for Nick from party city!
Amazon find!!
I reserved the area near the steel tip dart boards.
Teammates!
Love you for 40 more years babe!

My brother is here too, celebrating.
My mom was at our house watching the girls.

Eva was getting a little tipsy!

I was exhausted from planning everything for this party, plus trying to get things done before school is out. Christmas is sneaking up on us!! I finally got my brother and Nick out of the party by 11 ish. Ugh!
We got home to send my brother home with my mom. 
I ate a piece of cookie cake and went to bed!!
