Its that time of year again, where your birthday meets you again!

Saturday was my birthday and somewhere in the number I have lost count, hehe no but in all honesty I DON'T feel 26. It feels like yesterday I was going to kindergarden, and then enrolling into college. I find it harder to do the things I used to could do like back bends, where the last one I tried I fell smack on my head, and the hardest one is simply sitting on my knees, I look like an old woman trying to get back up straight to walk. Like it or not I getting older, we all do unfortunately. This year I actually spent my birthday with my hubby. Since we have been married he has a farming conference to attend but this year they skipped out!

Friday, birthday eve, we went to meet my dad. We went to Larry's pizza and I couldn't have been more happy! I am in love with Larry's pizza. There are knock offs but this is the "real" Larry's with him, Larry, walking around filling drinks and what have you! Yummy to my tummy!!!

Saturday was the "big day" and if you don't hence the excitement I am all about birthday! Yes, I love love to have a reason to celebrate! The day started out like normal Cinderella housekeeping chores. My husband, oh yeah I told you he stayed home this year didn't I, well he decided to go with a few people from church and squirrel hunt. I wasn't to thrilled about this decision, but oh well he went and I think had fun. So while he was blasting away at all but the ZERO squirrels out there I was cleaning away on this much needed day of fun! Finally somewhere around noon (he was supposed to be home by noon) I had to lay Lola down for a nap. I had kept her awake for way to long, you see she got woken up a little early on this day because of loud noises that approached her from a ice chest and ice meeting! Ok on with my day, we woke the sweet angel up from snoozing away to go fill my selfish desires of shopping. Oh yes I went to my favorite stores, Hobby Lobby and then Target!

But while feeling guilty for messing her day up, we took her to the park. It was so nice Saturday! She enjoyed some fun in the sun!

After playing and a quick unplanned trip to Gymboree (that is another long story) we headed over to Olive Garden for dinner. It was yummy!!!

(Thought I would share the results of what kiddos can do to a restaurant!)

I had a great time with family and friends! Thank you all for making my evening wonderful!!!

If you notice, she isn't wearing the same shirt as in the park and she doesn't have socks on because I forgot her outfit at home. She had stains all over the other shirt and I didn't want to change her after I rudely woke her up from her nap. I thought I grabbed the freshly ironed outfit but I only got the undershirt, socks, shoes and bow, but not the jumper. That is the Gymboree story in a nutshell!
