Birthdays, Birthdays!!

Well as some of you may know I had my birthday on 2/6 and I turned the big 25! Normally I take the day off from work and relax however I started doing daycare for my sister 2 days prior so I could very well take that day off. So I started my day off at 6am to get the kids up and out of bed and to Becca's house for work. I had a long day of watching kids but Becca was so nice and watched Harper and Laney so that Danny and I could go out on a date.

I got off work at 5pm and left for home, Danny was at my parents house working with my Dad on fixing his mirror on his car and was supposed to be home shortly after me. When I got home and walked in the kitchen he had balloons, a Happy Birthday sign, flowers, card and a present waiting for me on the table. Let me tell you it is really hard to surprise me but he managed to this time. I was all smiles when I was opening my present because it was a small jewelry size box, and I was right it was a necklace from Kay Jewelers. The open hearts necklace from the Jane Seymour collection, sterling silver, no diamonds and it is very simple and pretty, just what I like!

Danny walked in the door about 5 min later and after thanking him of course and giving him a hug we got ready and went out to dinner. I chose Red Lobster because I was craving shrimp, and it was really good! After dinner we planned on going bowling, I though it would be something different and exciting for the both of us. Plus I planned on kicking Danny's butt! Unfortunately the 2 bowling allies that we tried going to were so busy with league nights that it would have been over an hour wait so we chose to.......go grocery shopping!!! I know, fun right?

After we went shopping we went and picked up the kids from Becca's house and went home and were up till about 1am and fell right to sleep. Unfortunately we didn't get to sleep in either, however it was a fun date night that we so desperately needed. Thanks Becca!!

Funny side note, Becca had paid me for the first few days that I watched the kids and I put the check in my back pocket instead of my purse. The next day I couldn't find it in my pocket and I thought that I had put it in my purse..It kind of slipped my mind until Sunday and when I couldn't find it I finally got the guts up to call Becca and tell her that I lost the first paycheck, it was kind of embarrassing. She wasn't mad at all, I just wanted to tell her that she may have to cancel the check. I tried calling Red Lobster but they didn't have it so I called the Winco and they had it! Apparently someone found it in the bathroom, so it dropped out when I went to the potty. I was so happy that I found it and learned my lesson..
