On Friday the 12th I turned 28. Here is a Birthday recap. On Thursday night my mom drove here from Virginia Beach. Her new place of residence, to be with me on my Birthday. Brad had been working in Wilmington all week and was due home on my Birthday afternoon. My Birthday morning I woke up to perform my carpool responsibilities and get Bradley and Alex off to school. After that I went to the gym. I figured I should burn some calories to even out all the ones I would be taking in as I treat myself. After that Liz and her mom and Chase came over. We left the Grammy’s to watch the three boys while Liz and I went to get Starbucks and pedicures! It was fantabulous! She knows what her friend wants and appreciates. Thanks Liz! We came home to see that the Grammy’s had eventually had to stop gabbing and actually watch and feed their grandsons. We ate lunch together and they headed home. Shortly after Bradley was home from school and Brad was home from Wilmington.
We took some good old southern front porch pictures!
Mom and the boys stayed home while Brad and I went out together alone for my Birthday dinner. We couldn’t leave without making it official with 28 candles though. I have a really funny story about this. My mom or Brad in all their “business?” did not get or buy me a cake. My mom intended to but time snuck up on her and she had not run to the store yet. So, since I was famished for dinner, rather than have her run out and buy a cake , I pulled out a box of Brownie mix and my mom baked it. We were in a hurry and thought it had cooled enough so we put the candles in and then Brad started to light the candles and we realized the candles were completely falling over because the bottom of the candles were melting in the brownies. So…I made a wish and blew out the candles but the boys did not have brownies afterwards! My mom made them cookies instead because they had there hopes up for brownies. It was really a site to see trying to blow out candles melting from both ends.
My mom did not get a picture of me blowing my candles out. There is always next year when I am even older I guess!
Grammy & Easton moments.
Brad had to work on a Saturday…boo hoo! So, we went to Oktoberfest in our town. They loved the bounce houses!
I love his crazy hair!
Bradley literally fell asleep while the guy was painting his face. What a tired tiger!
German lady and fella.
They were selling cold stone there but we opted to go get di’lishi instead. It was my first time trying this very popular new place we have in town. It was “di’lish” as Bradley said!
This was my mom and mine’s to split then Easton would scream when we tried to eat some. After several spoons and attempts for him to share we ended up having to go get him his own. The days of my trying to slide by with sharing and rationing out portions are over. This baby in the family is tired of getting sloppy seconds. He wants his own of everything!! Of course we still need to work on sharing with him but I do see how he would be like this. The poor little guy gets everything taken from him and is left with nothing at all too often because they know they get away with it when I am not looking.
See, he was moved to his own seat with his own cup! Happy now little Easty Bubbas?!
On Sunday we went to church and then my mom and I shopped for my Birthday. My mom headed home and we got a sitter because Brad’s boss was in town for the course they were teaching locally. He wanted to take us out to dinner. Bonefish and bang bang shrimp was the finale for my Birthday weekend! Somewhere in there I had Chinese take out too. I pretty much ate and drank my way through me turning another year older. Here’s to 28 and being Great!
