I celebrated my 26th birthday on Tuesday! Sad, that I'm now closer to 30 than 20. Oh, well. It was a great day. Darren made me pancakes for breakfast, which I love. He even got creative and made them in the shape of a heart. Too cute. We then headed out to run some errands and had lunch at home. I got to talk to my parents, all of my brothers and sisters, and my dad's parents. I loved it.
Darren then surprised me with dinner at my favorite restaurant, Olive Garden.
We ate WAY too much, but I loved every minute of it. He spoiled me even more when we got home and I opened my gifts. He got me the movie Blindside (which we saw on our honeymoon), a San Francisco Giants hat, and a Giants t-shirt.
It'll be fun to wear them both to a game this summer. We finished off the night by having some wonderful birthday cake and ice cream! Darren made his first cake ever (I was shocked) and did a great job. It was chocolate with chocolate frosting, which is the only cake that anyone should have in my book.
It was a great day, and I'm blessed to have such a wonderful husband to spend my birthday with.
HOW CUTE...holy cow, ALL OF IT!! Darren, you just went up like 5 stars in my books, and your gifts sound a lot like my mother's day gift from Jeff (a Giants jacket)...these boys! Good thing I LOVED it, and it sounds like you did too. That shirt is way cute too. Totally girly. HAPPY BIRTHDAY! SORRY we didn't call you, we will make it up to you though, I promise.
ReplyDeleteThat's a gorgeous cake for being his first cake ever! Bravo!
ReplyDeleteThis is how lame I am - it's almost the end of the month and I'm just now reading this! Yay for Olive Garden, did Darren make the waiters sing for you? :D
mmm now I want Olive Garden... :)
