Happy Birthday Renee!

My birthday was on a Wednesday this year. Wednesdays are busy for us -- dance class, choir, and now church -- so Doug decided to take me out to dinner on Tuesday. We were even able to leave the kids at home!! How exciting is that? The funny thing though is that we just stayed in Slayton instead of driving the 45 minutes to go somewhere else. So, we left about 7p to go to the Royal Loon. We were the only ones eating, so we were done with our meal by 8p. I told Doug that we couldn't go home yet it was barely an hour out. So, we talked a little while longer, then took the "long" way home and we were home about 8:20. At least it was a little while out right?

Since we were celebrating on Tuesday, Doug had beautiful flowers sent to me on Tuesday.


Wednesday I got more pretty flowers from a friend and I also got to open my present from Doug and the kids. We ran out of time at lunch (Gabe has preschool at 12:30) to do cake, so we had cake after choir that night. The kids were thrilled to get to stay up late!! (Special thanks to Kathy for providing the cupcakes for the kids to decorate for my bday!!)

Doug,

You're way too romantic. You make a regular schmoe like me look pathetic. But I'm glad for ya.

Slayton sounds cold!
