The Beard Report: A full weekend of celebrations!

As Michael likes to say I don't have a "birthday", I usually have a birthday week!! I don't see what is wrong with that, do you?! This year, do to the recession, I only had a birthday weekend and it was so much fun! We started off the celebration on Friday night at my parents house. My mom cooked a wonderful steak dinner and had my favorite cookie cake for dessert. It was nice to spend the evening with my parents and my brother & his family. Thanks again mom & dad for a wonderful evening.

On Saturday night we met the Harpers at Taco Mac. I had been craving wings and it has been a long time since I had some. So I treated myself, hey it's my birthday weekend right!? Thanks guys for eating there again just for me! They were very tasty and I think the boys (Ty & Connor that is) enjoyed the cheese dip too! After a good dinner we headed down to the Aquarium front to let the kids play in the water area. They all had so much fun and it was fun watching them. Macy gets a little carried away in water and has no fear...there were 2 moments were she had "close calls". I hope the Harpers weren't too embarrassed being with this loud mom....I will be better in Mexico! :) Thanks again for a wonderful evening.

Today is Toby' 6th birthday. After naps today we took him to PetCo to get him a new toy and treat. He usually doesn't get to go with us, but this is his special day. The kids enjoyed him being with us and he enjoyed it too! Tomorrow is my actual birthday and I am looking forward to spending a day of shopping with my mom, kid free thanks to my dad!!
