So it's really late at night ... I apologize in advance if something I write doesn't make sense. There will also be no pictures with this post since are still on my camera downstairs. If you are okay with these conditions, feel free to read on!
This week has been a crazy fun week of birthday celebrations! I think I left off midway through Monday ... dinner was with Coleson at Olive Garden and it was soo nice. Wonderful to be out together on a date! It also helped that we had giftcards so we were able to compliment our meals with an appetizer and a glass of wine. And then of course we followed it up by picking up catfood at Petsmart, super romantic :)
Tues, Wed, & Thurs were basically same old, same old. Coleson had lots of meetings and we each played winning tennis matches. The kids did their things and I did a little prep for Abby's party. Ryan had his Easter egg hunt and party at preschool on Thursday. Abby and I were able to go to that and it was a nice little event. Family started coming into town on Thursday as well. We met Auntie Sarah and Maxim for lunch at Chickfila and then showed off our new playset to them. Uncle Brian also arrived and the kids got to hang with him and Grandpa and Auntie Sarah Thursday evening.
Today, Friday, is Coleson's birthday. Happy Happy Birthday to the love of my life!! Unfortunately for him, I spent the day with my mom and sister while he hung with the kids. Thanks Dear, I owe you! We had a blast; they treated me to an amazing and fun day of surprises. We started with Mexican and margaritas (yumm!!). Then a trip to the nail salon where they talked me into being brave and I came out with purple toenails. Laura's are orange, but actually really pretty. Then a much needed stop at Victoria's Secret - let's just say I've nursed two kids and leave it at that! And then a shopping trip to Ann Taylor Loft. Lolly bought me a beautiful summery dress which I'll wear tomorrow for Abby's party. I also got a cute shirt and shorts. It was great fun hanging with my ladies! Thanks so much for such a special day, if only we'd worked in that nap it would have been perfect :)
Coleson spent his birthday home with the kids (three of them on Fridays!). But I think it went well; thanks to Brian and Sarah and Nana for hanging out with him and helping with the kids. Once we all got back, we celebrated Coleson! The sibs - us and Sarah, Christian, Laura, Brian - were able to enjoy a nice dinner together at a Japanese cook at your table place (thanks Grands for watching our babies!). It was a yummy treat- we think it's weird to go to places like that if you can't fill the table, so a group of six was a fun excuse. The food was delicious, company super great, and the best part ... Coleson's birthday dessert!! They dimmed the lights, turned on a disco strobe light, wheeled out a big ole' drum, and sang him happy birthday!! Everyone received ice cream and Coleson got an awesome fried banana boat (pictures to come eventually). It was really fun, at least for me, hopefully Coleson liked it too :) We then returned home for a fun, laugh filled game of Loaded Questions. Thanks for a great evening!!
Alright, I think I've just about typed myself to sleep and I'm pretty sure I've mentioned all the highlights of the week. Tomorrow's fun includes Touch a Truck and of course .... Abby's party!! Yay!!
