So I haven't posted in quite a while due to the tons of family fun I had for my birthday! It started out with my little sister Carrie coming up on the day before to spend a couple of days with us. The two of us got in some girl time with shopping for clothes and makeup. The next morning was my birthday. Benjamin woke me up by coming into my room without any pants on to tell me that he had wet the bed. Great, what a typical mom way to start the day. Then on the way to his room I look out the window to see the ground covered with snow. Double yuck! But the day took a turn for the better when I got to B's room and he yelled "Surprise" and I saw a present inside for me! Ben and the boys got me a cute hallmark card and a figure of a mom with two boys. To make things even better, Ben went out before I got up and picked up my favorite donuts and chocolate milk for breakfast. Carrie and I spent the day watching Enchanted, painting our toenails, and coloring her hair. When Ben got home from work, we went to Firehouse pizzaria for dinner. On the way in, we ran into our friends who were also there at the same time for a b-day dinner for their son. (good choice of restaurant Andre) So we all enjoyed dinner together. The day after the B-day we went to Dad's for another birthday dinner of Hawaiin haystacks. Afterwards, Jo, Halie and I went to Old Navy and Target (two of my favs) for some quickie shopping, since both stores closed while we were there. Dad and Jo treated us both to a big breakfast the next morning before we made our way over to Mom's place. Daddy and the boys stayed at her place for a nap while Mom and I headed over to the mall for some more birthday shopping! I can never get enough of shopping with the girls since my usual shopping is with my monkey entourage, and they don't like to go anywhere for more than 10 minutes with a minimum of 2 snacks. We wrapped up the day with dinner in Layton with my Grandma and Grandpa who treated us to the delicious food at Outback Steakhouse. All in all, not a bad way to turn 28! I was so busy having fun that I never got my camera out, but Ben snapped this photo of Grandma and Christopher with his phone.

Glad #28 was a good one. I am also glad to hear the fam treated you well. Liza prayed that day that it wouldn't rain, so as a funny joke the good Lord brought snow. She too was upset. LOL
Hapy birthday once again!
Happy Happy Birthday! We need to have another girls night out to celebrate!
