Old Fart

Today. Was. Perfect.

Really. Today couldn't have gone any better. I had a wonderful 24th birthday!

I woke up on time and got ready for preschool! I even had time to spare so I was able to pick up a Rockstar on my way to work! For preschool we went on a field trip to the fire station. The fire fighters are awesome! They got two calls while we were there, but luckily they finished our tour right before the calls came in. 

In between classes my mom gave me her and my dad's gifts. They gave me hair stuff and a note saying she paid for me to get my hair done, (YAY!) so all I have to do is call and schedule my hair lady! They also gave me the Frozen Barbies, because I'm obsessed with Frozen and love Barbies! Really though, I can't wait until Val is old enough to play Barbies so I'll have a reason to play!

After preschool ended, Shane came over to my parent's house with Val and I opened the gift she picked out for me. I didn't take a picture of the gift, but it's a super cute picture frame with pictures of her in it.

Shane even let her sign her own name on the wrapping paper!

We then left Val with my mom and dad so that we could go on a date baby-free!

Valarie loves going to Grandma and Grandpa's!

So we left and went back to our place so that I could open my gifts from Shane. He spoiled me! I got a few new pairs of earrings, a charm for my bracelet, a beanie, a clock, money to spend at Hobby Lobby, storage for my craft things, and my a place of my own to craft! See? Totally spoiled rotten.

We're in love, in case you couldn't tell.

After we finished with the gifts, we headed over to the Megaplex at Jordan Commons. We got HUGE ice cream cones and saw Olaf! (Frozen. Obsessed.) We went to the movie The Secret Life of Walter Mitty. It was pretty good. 

When the movie ended we were ready for dinner. We went to Bohemian Brewery (for the first time,) but also known as one of my new favorite restaurants. It's a delicious German place! 

I got the Bohemian Schnitzel and Shane got the Provencal pizza. It was a ton of food, and so good that my mouth is watering just thinking about it!

We finished dinner and went back to my parents to pick up Val. We then went home and just relaxed. I made some Pero, because I didn't feel like Tea. 

I feel so blessed to have Shane, Valarie, and my family in my life. They are all so good to me and do so much for me! They made this a very simple, but perfect birthday. I couldn't be more grateful for all of them. I love my life! 

Happy birthday to me. Holy crap I'm getting old. . .
