In the wholesome video, shot at her home in Fort Myers, Florida, Ashley Reynolds, 25, is bursting with excitement as she faces the camera and places the cake on her kitchen counter.
Then, after husband Tylan, 25, has entered the room with his eyes closed, Ashley removes his sunglasses and asks him to take a look at the sweet treat before him, which reads: “Congrats Dad!”
