My Birthday

I had another birthday last week. My kids can't understand why I am not overly excited about my birthday and even once said I don't like my birthday. But it was a great day. Some of my favorite happenings of the day:

~ Starting the day off right, at the gym. It always seems so hard to get there so I enjoyed it at least this one day.

~ Getting a phone call from my Mom early in the morning to say happy birthday but ended up crying telling me how proud she has always been of me. Ahhhh. So sweet and so nice to hear.

~ Going to get a pedicure all by myself. Loved the little bit of alone time. Thanks to Julie for offering to watch Maddie.
~ Picking Maddie up from Julie's and having her step right on my toe and mess up my pedicure.
~ Going back to the nails store and begging then to fix my nail. She wasn't too happy about it either. Oh well!
~ Having a fabulous lunch with my oldest and one of the best friends around! Thanks Julie! And watching Julie try to sit down. Too funny! She may have been in some major pain but she sacrificed it to go out with me. She will have to explain that one.
~ Having a salesman come to the door and ask if my folks were home. I guess I don't look 33, at least to one person.
~ Going to scouts with Joey. This may not have been a favorite activity but it was how I spent an hour of the day.

~Having a babysitter and going out to dinner with Geoff. Then we went to Yogurtland and I was excited to have Geoff go for the first time, since I love it. He got a tiny bit of strawberry yogurt with strawberries on top. I had to laugh. They have about 12 flavors and so many different topping but that is all he could come up with. You really do need a plan going in and I guess it was just too overwhelming for him. I loved it though!

~ Went home and had a little party with the kids. Then homework, bedtime and all that work!

It was such a fun day and I can say I liked my birthday this year. Thanks to everyone who made it great!
