Birthday Blast

On Sunday I turned 33. Big D and the kids made me my favorite breakfast, French toast and sausage. Usually when I make French toast I use my one and only non-stick pan. It is not very big so I have to cook two pieces of French toast at a time for a family of six. My Mother-in-law bought me an electric grill and Big D was able to make ten pieces of French toast at a time. You know what that means? I was actually able to eat a warm piece of French toast because they were all done at the same time! I am easy to please. A warm breakfast and I consider my birthday to be a success.

Bid D and the kids took me to the store to upgrade my MP3 player to an iPod. Big D bought me the iPod nano and I love it. I spent all Sunday night downloading songs.

The kids and Big D also took me out for dinner at a Mexican restaurant. I had an awesome birthday. Big D and the kids always make it very special for me.

Saturday we went out to Big D’s Aunt and Uncle’s house. They have a lot of property and every year they have a 4th of July party. There is always a lot of food, fireworks, and family.

Big D’s family is huge. There are many, many kids running around. Having so many cousins is something special, I'm happy that my children are able to experience family in that way.

My birthday weekend was a blast. Being with family and given a special day by my Hubby and kids, you can’t get much better than that.
