On Wednesday (my birthday) i woke up to the sweet smell of waffles and hot syrup that my wonderful husband made and brought up to me in bed. Then around noon a knock on the door surprised me... I opened the door to be even more surprised when a few of my friends (stacey, stacie, brit p + sara) stood and sang happy birthday and brought along some flowers and a bundt cake (another favortie of mine!), then they said, let's go to lunch! So we headed to Rachel's Kitchen for a delicious lunch and some chatting. Thanks ladies, it was so much fun and i was completely surprised! Meanwhile, the snow was blanketing the rooftops, the streets and our yards, kate fell asleep and when she woke up we went out and played in the snow. She just loves it! She was completely amazed by it and couldn't stop smiling...
Then i think she got too cold...
After our fun snow encounter we headed to BJ's Restaurant for dinner. Yum, even the name of this restaurant makes my mouth water! Yes we ate and ate and even had dessert... PIZOOKIES!
After BJ's we went back to Ron and Kathies for some more cake, ice cream and presents!
Now, i don't mean to brag, but i'm sure you were wondering what i got, here are a couple pictures...
a jacket..
a new flash for my camera + a frame..
a cake stand..
some new pots and pans..
and
a pair of diamond earings!!!
Yes, i do believe i have the BEST husband in the whole universe!!! Thanks Daniel, you are amazing! I LOVE YOU! And thanks to everyone else who made my birthday so great! [kate, ron, kathie, rachel, dustin, cami, darren, adam + michelle] I am so blessed to be among such wonderful friends and family!

ReplyDeleteI'd say that you made out a-okay, my dear! And, I loved the photos of Katie in the snow. She's so beautiful -- just like her mommy! Love you all! Aunt Linda xoxox
ReplyDeletehappy birthday brittney!
ReplyDeletehappy birthday!..your earrings are so nice! and i love that cake stand! soo cute!
ReplyDeleteWhat a GREAT birthday!! It reminds me of the Christmas that Jon got me a pair of "diamond" earrings. I was so excited. I had been asking for some, nothing big and fancy, just a simple pair of diamond earrings and sure enough, there they were on Christmas. I opened the box and was hootin' & hollerin'. I tore them out of the box and put them on. Hubby was just quiet. I asked how they looked, got up, looked in a mirror. I was thrilled. Then I went back to the box to close it, put the paper thing back in there. I saw in the box it said 'Target'. I said, "wow, I didn't know Target sold diamond earrings." Hubby, "They don't."
ReplyDeleteIt was too funny. I did eventually get some a few years later. But it was a funny story.
I feel so bad I missed your birthday and especially after I realized you came to help me the night your family came to celebrate with you. So.....HAPPY
ReplyDeleteBIRTHDAY!! Andrea and I are definately going to take you to lunch sometime soon. You are such a sweet, awesome, generous person and we love you!
HAPPY BIRTHDAY! Sounds like you had an awsome day, and snow to top it off!
