All About Me

Mark and I were discussing how it will be hard to top the Hawaii trip last year and the Arizona trip the year before that for Mother's day and my birthday. He came through with flying colors! He first made me the most delicious breakfast I have ever eaten. The picture below doesn't do it justice. Just know, it was AMAZING!!! BBQ chicken, egg and guacamole sauce, mmmmmm! Church was great of course but I was spoiled rotten when we got home. I didn't have to do anything other than open gifts. I won't go into the list but I loved them all. My favorite just might be the shirt below of my favorite TV character, Sheldon.
I had Mark take off work for my birthday. We played volleyball with the coed group I play with. We met playing volleyball at the institute building where we both attended community college so it was fun to play with him again. He still has skills!
We were both craving seafood so we went to the Red Lobster close by for lunch. After lunch we went to the movies to see Iron Man 2 (good movie). It was fun to spend the day without kids but we didn't totally leave them out. We needed them to help eat the gi-HUGE-ic cake Mark surprised me with. YUM to the dark chocolate German cake! It was two great days and boy do I feel loved!

Wow! Kenny did an awesome job with his recital piece. He really has good rhythm.

Good for Mark!!! He really loves you and is willing to do all kinds of things to make you happy. How did you get so lucky!!! Good for him.

I'm glad they spoiled you rotten. That's how it should be. You deserve to know that you are loved.

That is the best t-shirt I have ever seen. Aaron and I cracked up at it. Gotta love Sheldon!
