Mommy's Birthday!

Well, since somebody (ahem) won't blog in this household, I'll have to just toot my own horn about how fabulous I am for my own birthday...haha!



I had a great birthday on Wednesday! I was bound and determined that this would be a great birthday since it's my last one that begins with a "2". First, my alarm went off at 4:30 and off I went to go to my "Body Pump" class. I was thinking that I'd just keep it mum about my birthday so that the instructor wouldn't embarass me. Well, I was doing pretty good until my card got scanned, and then computer announced (very loudly I might add), "Happy Birthday". And then about 3 or 4 workers in the gym shouted out to me Happy Birthday as well.


I got home and all of the lights were still out (about 6:25), but I could smell something yummy. I rounded the corner to head to my room and Jerry and Anniston were in the kitchen with the lights out with a candle lit in the middle of a stack of pancakes and started to sing "Happy Birthday" song to me as soon as they saw me. I made my wish, then Anniston and I sat on our bed to eat like princesses.


Afterwards I got ready for work, and Anniston got ready for school.


Treyson even got up early to spend extra time with me.


And then he saw that we had leftover pancakes, and he wanted in on that action!


I went to work Monday. At lunch time, Jerry rolled in (unannounced) to take me out to eat. We chose Mexican....yummmmmmm! I love surprise lunch dates!


After work we went to the Ash Wednesday service at our church which is always a very powerful, moving service. We went to Dairy Queen afterwards to get my favorite, a dipped cone (except I get it in a cup).


Once we got home, we watched the olympics for a little while with Anniston, put her to sleep, and then watched the movie, Couples Retreat. It was cute, and I'd been wanting to see it for awhile. Let's just say that I HAVE to go to Bora Bora soon. We watched the credits and it was filmed at the St. Regis in Bora Bora....I don't care if I'm there, but I just want an over-the-water bungalow....oh my goodness--AMAZING!

Now if that doesn't look amazing, i don't know what will please you!

Thank you Anniston, Treyson, and Jerry for an amazing birthday! I look forward to Saturday evening's celebration with MaMa and PaPa as well!
