So yesterday was my birthday. I had a fantastic day. I worked 11-3 in the morning, but it was with my very favoritest coworkers.. And my coworker Danielle makes THE best baked goods.. and she made me cupcakes.. Then Jeff brought me a birthday cake!! and then afterwards, my dad and I went to this charity thing at the zoo where we were pouring beer.. I haven't been to the zoo in years.. so it was fun to joke that my Daddy was taking me to the zoo for my birthday. As much as I say that i hate people sometimes, I had a genuinely good time.. Everyone was happy, it was just fun.. And I got to see some cute zoo animals.. And some Nesties came to visit me and they are the best! They even encouraged me to enter in a silent auction to win some of that Zen collection stuff.. I did.. but I got outbid.. but they were so sweet to think of me. :) Thanks girls..
I came home to flowers and and ANOTHER cake and gifts that were left on my porch by my MIL. She absolutely 100% spoiled me.. I do NOT deserve her.. Seriously. In addition to the gorgeous dozen pink roses, she gave me $200 in gift cards to Motherhood Maternity/Destination Maternity, and $200 in gift cards to Best Buy. The best buy ones were to buy a Microwave, which I had told her might be a good birthday idea, since I have been wanting a new one for quite sometime.. and they're reasonably priced... The Maternity gift cards are so awesome too.. I thought about asking her for that, but I felt silly, since I'm clearly not showing.. It will be so nice to go on a little shopping spree when I'm ready though! My mom had given me $50 to target for my birthday and was planning on using that for clothes too.. but I might use that and get us a new George Foreman grill (I am a small appliance whore)
So Today Jeff and I went shopping for the microwave. The microwave I wanted was only $85 on sale.. So.. I had $100+ left over even after tax.. So I bought myself a new digital camera too.. We had to chip in SOME money of course.. but the $100 covered more than half of it. I decided to special order the hot pink one, so I won't have it for a week..
I also still hadn't gotten my big present from Jeff for my birthday. He had given me a T-shirt on wednesday night (it has the VW bunny logo on it and its pink! so cute!) I have known what my big gift was gonna be for awhile though.. Remember my vacuum drama? Well Jeff got me a brand new Dyson DC25 Ball.. Its so freaking awesome.. I am in love with it. All the cat fur shall be banished from my house. Oh! And my MIL.. is gonna try to get the money back from the vacuum she bought me for christmas (and give it to ME!).. so I might be getting another Target gift card.. Have I mentioned I'm totally spoiled?
And.. in addition to all my gifts.. i'm getting totally spoiled with Dinners out.. Monday night we went out to Black and Blue for steaks with my parents. SOOO delicious.. (although a little heartburn inducing). Tonight Jeff and I are just going to Chili's cuz its one of my faves and its not nearby.. Tomorrow I am going to a nice lunch with my mom and MIL.. And sometime next week I hopefully am going to lunch with my BFF.. It doesn't matter where we go.. I just love getting to go out with her.. She has three babies (Well two two year olds and a baby) so she doesn't get out much...so usually hanging out with her just consists of hanging out in her living room for an afternoon, which is totally fine.. but I get excited for our "dates"
I think I am having the Best Week Ever!!
