Birthday weekend

This weekend marked my entrance into the late 20s, my 28th birthday!  The celebration started on Thursday.  I got home from work and my first gift was sitting on my doorstep:
My degree!  Yay for me!  I know it might not seem like a huge deal to some, but to me its a huge deal.  During the time that I was earning this thing, I dealt with being a single mom, having a second child, my father's tragedy, etc etc etc.... and I did it anyways!  Not to mention that little gold sticker on the bottom means that I graduated with honors!  So, Kiss it!  Sorry, I will get off my soap box now. 

Friday was my birthday and when I woke up, my husband had my gifts and cards on the table waiting for me.  Notice I said cardS... not only did he remember to get me a card, but he got cards from the boys too!  Points for Allen!  After work, we got home and got ready to go to dinner at El Jalisco, which is quickly becoming one of my favorite places to eat!
All dressed and ready to go!  Notice Connor chewing on the leg of his beloved dinosaur.... he is getting his 2nd 2 year molar already!  The boys and I were joined at dinner by my mom, Naomi, Rhonda, John, Dawn, and my wonderful friend Dana and her son JD.

It was a wonderful dinner and the margarita was fabulous too!  After dinner, Dawn, the boys and I went for ice cream at TCBY.  It was delicous!

Saturday was what we were waiting for!  We woke up early, dropped Connor off with Rhonda for the day/night, picked up mom, and headed to Wild Adventures for the day!  Danny met us there.  We rode roller coasters, water slides and more roller coaster before we saw Lady Antebellum!
 
It was such and amazing weekend!  I felt like a little kid again because I was so excited about everything that we did to celebrate.  I am so thankful that I get the opprotunity to celebrate and spend time with my family and friends.  My husband and children treated me like a queen.  I am one lucky girl!
