fun birthday weekend

thursday afternoon my sister and mom took me out to lunch for my birthday. scott came home from work early so he could spend the day with me, but ended up watching brooklin so that i didn't have to try and wrestle with her at lunch. thanks scotty! then that evening scotty took me out to dinner, which was really yummy, but i was still a little full from lunch so i could barely eat anything. luckily dinner made great lunch for friday. :) we just kind of chilled the rest of the evening and watched the office over at my parent's house. i thought that maybe scott had something else planned, since it was my 25th birthday, but we just went home and straight to bed. i guess i was a little disappointed since we had a pretty big party for scott's 25th, but then i felt a little silly because i did have a pretty good day, and scott got me a great gift.


he could tell that something was bothering me so he told me that we'd have a big party next year. why? 26 isn't that great. oh well. saturday we went over to my parent's and i went to costco with them and left scott in front of the tv. we were at costco forever just looking at everything, which was great because when i go with scotty it's in and out within 5 minutes. we get what we need and that's it. he's not a big shopper. so, by the time we got back to my parent's brookie had about had it and was ready for a nap, and scott was insisting that we leave right away. okay, fine, whatever, she wasn't freaking out that badly. we had brought separate cars so i went straight home and got brookie in bed while scott stopped at DQ to get an ice cream cake for my family party on sunday. when he got home brooklin was sound asleep and i was playing metroid on my game boy (don't ask). i asked scott when he wanted me to start dinner and he told me to wait until 6. fine. i thought i heard brooklin and then a knock on the door. scott told me to get the door and he'd check on brookie. why can't you get the door? was what i was thinking, but i went downstairs anyway to see who was pounding on my door, and they just kept knocking and knocking. i was getting a little annoyed. when i reached the bottom of the stairs they just opened the door and let themselves in. it was a bunch of family and friends. i had no idea what was going on. scott didn't say anything about people coming over and i wasn't exactly prepared for company (ie. ripped sweatshirt and pink ring in the guest bathroom toilet). i didn't figure out what was going on until we got to the top of the stairs. it was a surprise party. i immediately felt terrible about how i was acting thursday night when i found out that we were just going home to bed. scott had a huge grin on his face and i could tell he knew exactly what i was thinking. we had a ton of people show up and we had lots of great food, and the DQ cake was for this party. the cheesecake my mom bought at costco was for the family party. so i got two cakes, mind you my two favorites! and i got to celebrate my birthday all weekend. it was great! and my mom made cooked carrots to go with dinner on sunday, which i've been craving for a while. thanks everyone, especially my dear sweet husband, for making my 25th great. i think i'm ready for a nice quiet and relaxing birthday next year. maybe on a beach in hawaii???




oh, and scott did clean the pink ring in the toilet that i was meaning to get to, just never did. :) somehow we managed to not get a single picture from the surprise party. :(
