Fabulous Birthdays

Shawn and I celebrated our birthdays last weekend. I'd have to say that this year was the most fun birthdays we've ever had. We started out by going out to dinner with some friends on Shawn's birthday. We had a great time. I especially enjoyed Shawn saying on the car ride back, how he really wished we had gotten a dessert b/c you just need a dessert on your birthday- not knowing that Vanessa had actually made him a birthday cake. He was excited to dive into it. We continued on celebrating with a work party on Friday. It was also a ton of fun. The best was yet to come, when on my birthday we actually went away. Friends took the girls and we took off. We spent the afternoon shopping at the mall of america, met up with friends for lunch at Bubba Gumps- where they sang to BOTH of us, and then went to a late movie and a super late dinner. We slept way in on Sunday and didn't get the kids back until after 5:00 p.m. as far as birthdays go, this one ROCKED!!!!
Thanks to Vanessa for making BOTH of our birthday cakes, to Carolyn for taking the girls and to Vanessa and Bonnie for making sure we got off to an early start!!!! You guys totally rock!

Unfortunately, there have been some really unkind posts that have been left on blogs I read by anonymous posters, that's why I ask everyone to sign. Anonymous is for the grandparents so that they don't have to get google accounts. Just sign it Grandma, we still might not be able to guess which one :)
