My Big Day!

Today was my 27th birthday! I had a fabulous day--Greg and Garrett really spoiled me. I enjoyed lunch at The Bluebird (great local place) with my family and Greg took me (and Garrett and his cousin Josh) on a smokin' hot date to Callaway's Bistro. We've never eaten there before, but we have heard great things about it and decided to give it a try. It was great! They have killer breadsticks--I think I ate about 10 (and I'm not kidding)--but it's my big day, so I can do that! The best part was when our waitress asked everyone in the whole restaurant to sing "Happy Birthday" to me. Let's just say I was slightly embarrassed!


I've been enjoying sewing lately (nerdy, I know) and have really wanted a rotary cutter and mat and some good scissors. Greg surprised me with some Gingher scissors--he picked them out himself and even got some ribbon out of my craft stuff and tied them up all pretty--and a gift card to JoAnn's so I can pick out what I want. He really enjoyed posing for this picture...

Thanks to everyone for the cards, calls, texts, and birthday messages. I am so blessed to have so many wonderful people in my life. Love you all!

P.S. I know life gets crazy busy, so if any of you forgot my birthday and still want to get me a really nice and expensive present, I will be accepting gifts for this year's birthday until March 20, 2010.

Happy Birthday Natalie! I remembered; I just never got around to sending you an email. I'll always remember your birthday because it was the day me & Josey's dating life began. It's a special day to me too, so to celebrate your birthday, we also went on a date. :) Hope you had a great one! And I REALLY want to get together sometime soon.
