Friday was my 29th birthday, again! (For the 5th time. I am getting used to being 29.) Anywho, it was a great day! I feel so blessed. My husband woke me up at 6:30 am and put my wedding ring on my finger! What so exciting about that, you say? Well, I haven't been able to wear it for 4 +- years! The diamonds were going to come out unless I had all the gold built up around them. It was too expensive to fix so I have been buying costume jewelry to wear. I haven't complained a bit because I don't mind getting a new ring now and again. Might I add, Avon has a wonderful selection. I have enjoyed it, but secretly hoping mine would be fixed. Well I noticed back in November that my ring was not in my jewelry box. I asked my 14 yr old if she knew what happened, and her reply, "I don't know what you are talking about." I asked my husband, he didn't have a clue and seemed agitated that I might have missed placed it. My mom had the same response. So, I hoped to see it at Christmas time. Well, Christmas came and went and my concern increased significantly. I decided that if at my birthday it did not show up I was going to panic. So, to my delight and welcomed surprise my husband saved up some money and had it fixed! Yeah! I feel married again! (just kidding)

Let's see, after the marvelous surprise first thing in the morning. My dear husband made me breakfast. Then we headed for a field trip to the planetarium and a historical museum. It was the neatest place. I really enjoyed it. I believe the kids did too.

I wanted to surprise the kiddos for lunch, so I didn't tell them what or where we were going for lunch. I took them to my favorite place in Boise, Tami's Tea Room.

They have the best Monte Cristo in the world! They loved it! I believe that they want to go again real soon. I think that I have started a tradition. We will probably go for everyone's birthday. One of my clients even gave me a tea cup, with a beautiful pink rose on it! How perfect!

Later that evening, my husband invited a few friends over and we visited and enjoyed each other's company. Not to mention, played a few games. My mother made a rasberry cake in the shape of a heart. I believe that is to symbolize all the love she feels for me. ( kidding again) No, she said it was for the month of love. So, I loved it. It was the perfect end to a perfect day.
