My Birthday

This year during my birthday Jim got the chance to go on a survival trip with the senior boys in our ward. Since I am now 34 I told him he could go as long as we did something to celebrate during the weekend. The night before my birthday Andrew showed me my first gift, he made me a picture on his Lite Brite



Luckily Vanessa decided to give me a great gift and let me sleep in. I woke up to Andrew in my face saying 'Happy Birthday Mom.' He had a very special pop-up card that he made all by himself. It was a really good way to wake up. A little later he came back into my room with a few boxes of Crystal Light and asked me which kind I wanted. I told him I was okay right then so he asked me if I'd like orange juice or water. The light finally went on, he was making me breakfast. It made me so happy that my sweet little boy came up with this idea all by himself. I almost started to cry. I waited in bed 'cause I didn't know if he was bringing me breakfast in bed or if he was just making it for me. I waited and waited and waited. Vanessa woke up so I went to get her up. I walked into the kitchen and found not just cinnamon toast and orange juice, but the toast was shaped as hearts.



I seriously started to cry! It was the sweetest thing! The toast had a TON of cinnamon on it but it was delicious especially since it was made by Andrew.

I got to have a yummy lunch at Carrabba's with my great friend Camilla. We had dinner with my parents at their house and then had cupcakes. The next day I got to have another yummy lunch at Olive Garden with another great friend Connie. That weekend we went out with our friends Chris and Stacie. It was a fun night with Mexican food and the movie The Killers, which by the way was a really funny movie. I love Ashton, he is hilarious!!! It was another great birthday! I have so many blessings that I am truly grateful for!!
