Birthday Weekend

Whoa! Watch me go, two posts in one day. Maybe I am just procrastinating all the house work that is calling my name. I had the best birthday a couple of weeks ago even if it meant I am now a year older. Yes I am old but I am going to live in denial for as long as possible. Anyway, after a great day, Matt and I went to PF Changs for dinner. One of my favorite places to go. We didn't make reservations due to the fact that our babysitter didn't know exactly when she could be at our house. Really our wait wasn't that long but the manager seated us and apologized for the wait saying that it had been a crazy night. Through talking he found out that it was a babsitter night and my birthday. He then told us that in that case, dinner was on him. We laughed thinking that he was joking. A little later he came back by and told us that he was being serious. Awesome!!! Something like that never happens to us. How cool is free PF Changs?

After that we finished the day at another of my favorites....Starbucks. I just walk in that place and I'm happy! I have heard wonderful things about their coffee cups and my dear husband bought me one to along with the Starbucks gift cards he had given me at dinner. Let me just say, this is worth every penny. It keeps your drink piping hot forever and it's yet another of my favorites....wait for it......yep, it's RED! Is it wrong to love a wordly possession so much?

I do need to add that Matt had also taken me a few days before and bought me my first pair of "real" boots. I love them! How cool are they?

My sweet kids had made me stepping stones for our flower beds. I love that kind of thing. They were so proud to give them to me. Early the next morning, Matt and the kids loaded up to go to my parent's house so Matt could go hunting. I had over 24 hours to myself and that hasn't happened in 5 years! I have to admit, I loved it. I went to Affair of the Heart with a good friend on Saturday and found a few things that I couldn't live without. What an amazing weekend. Feels so good to be loved!
So this is the only pic I have. For some reason I just didn't take any pics the day of. Must be my old age setting in! I promise, no more blogging today. I'm off the face the long " to do" list. Wish me luck!!!
