birthday week

so my birthday was a week ago...but didnt post birthday after comments till now, since the birthday this year took on epic proportions and well lasted for a week. or at least we claimed everything that we did for the week was bday related so here's the recap. (and it still not over since I've yet to have family celebrations) the pics are here...since there are WAY too many to load onto blogger

thursday...the actual bday. presents with nick...including mary poppins tickets and fancy dinner reservations. it was delightful. baby cow was delicious. my bday cocktai was tasty. bert danced on the top of the stage upside down. though there were no penguins. dancing statues in the park are no substitue for dancing penguins.


friday...aka birthday beach day. we well went to the beach. burt our feet playing frisbee because we arent good enough to stand in our one cooled off spot ad still be able to catch the frisbee. then played some tennis ball toss...realizing we need the velcro catch paddle game....since we are good at swatting, not so good at catching.


friday part 2....a raw comes over for drinks. since my bday shares the weekend with the 4th...NO ONE is EVER in town. but had the pleasure of sharing with a fellow sufferer who whined that he never gets to come over. we drank camping beer..played some dominos played some jenga, ate some pengunny crumble cake. (I have this penguin cake pan...that we were going to turn into a bunny...but that wouldnt give up the cake...so we had crumbles that I scooped out)




saturday...TASTE in the rain. we tasted...ate some turkey legs, some hot diggity dogs, some gigantic pile of chips, some frozen cheesecake dipped in chocolate, and some popcorn ball dipped in liquid nitrogen...aka the popcornsicle. delish. played some mean go fish..then we watched some guster in the rain. and then we decided to go home. and then the sun came out. TYPS. then went to evanston fireworks...which little knwn fact are actually all for me.


sunday...ok so not bday festivities...but GIGANTIC cinnamin rolls at ann sathers.

monday...beach day with claires, and nick's mommy, and cousin. then pizza shenangins where we order separately, to use two different coups...and claires stands outside the pizza hut holding her pizza for five min while mine finshed. and nick's mommy gave me my birthday rug.


tuesday...crispy honey chipotle chicken crispers then jersey boys! whoo hoo! for the second time...and I'd still go back again.
