I am lucky to have some pretty amazing friends in my neighborhood! For my birthday they showed up Friday at my house at 9am. I had just gotten the kids out of the tub and I was half ready, but still in my pj's. It was supposed to be a surprise where we were going, but Ryan was also supposed to tell me to be ready at 9. He forgot. At least I do love surprises! The girls each grabbed one of my naked children and got them ready in 2 minutes while I got dressed. We dropped the kids off with one of the husbands (thanks Chad) and headed off to our secret destination. Good Things Utah! This will not mean much to you if you live in another state. It is the morning show that every woman loves to watch here. We got to see the behind the scenes, had Bajio pork salads, got Bajio gift cards and Robert's coupons since they were the guests that day. Debbie Gibson (80's fame) was a guest co-host. We had our maybe 3 seconds of fame when they showed the studio audience. Loved it!!! We will have to do it again girls!!!

Saturday was my actual b-day. I worked Friday night, so really I slept quite a bit of it. That night though we enjoyed a great (in other words kid free) dinner and movie with our good friends Dave and Catherine. Cat's birthday is the 16th so we always celebrate together. I don't know how we forgot to take pictures with them. It was super fun though!
Thanks for all of the happy birthday calls, texts, cards and gifts! I am so lucky!!

I am hiding this picture further down for a reason. This is my 'thanks for surprising me' face!

We also went to the aquarium last week with cute little Evalyn.

They love seeing all of the fishies!
