I love birthdays...mine or anyone else's, I just love celebrating them! WC did an amazing job surprising me tonight. The plan was that he was taking me out for a nice, simple dinner to commemorate the event. We got to the restaurant and the hostess pointed us to a table--where three of our friends were waiting! We haven't met many new people out here yet, at least not people we'd celebrate our birthdays with so I wasn't expecting a party involving others. But these were old college friends who still live in Boston and it was such a nice surprise! I hadn't seen IT in particular for about a year now; he's been too busy with work as a consultant and it was so good to finally catch up with him. I guess a few more people were supposed to show up, but they had to bail at the last minute unfortunately. Yay for my amazing (and sneaky) husband! It was a wonderful dinner at Tuscan Grill, made much more special by the addition of old friends.
My family celebrated with me last weekend because they have to go to a wedding in upstate NY this weekend. We started the afternoon off with some pumpkin carving, which was a ton of fun. Then it was present time. I got a waffle maker from my mom, which I've been wanting because we love hosting brunch and Belgian waffles are so yummmmmmy. And my sisters got me DDR (aka Dance Dance Revolution), also by request :) Heehee...I'm so bad at it right now, but I plan to practice lots and get better! I even got my mom to try it out, haha! My present to myself is sleeping in as late as I want tomorrow. With the Red Sox in the World Series I've been going to bed really late and it's definitely wearing me down. Not setting the alarm is such a luxurious indulgence....
Happy Birthday to Me! Thanks, WC and the rest of my family, for making it special!
