Yesterday was my birthday and I turned 44!
The celebrating started on Friday night with our Bible study group. They ordered a cheesecake and cupcakes for us to enjoy. They were really tasty! Some of my friends also brought me some flowers. You can never go wrong with cheesecake, chocolate, and flowers!
On my birthday, we took it easy. I opened some gifts my parents had sent me, and then we talked to them for a little bit. My dad's birthday was also yesterday. I was born on his 25th birthday, so yesterday he turned 69! Maybe I can convince them to come visit us next year on our birthday.
After opening gifts, some of the kids and I took a walk around the neighborhood. We picked some tropical flowers to add to the bouquet I already had in water. It made it quite tropical looking!
Then it was time for lunch at our favorite birthday place - Dos Rios. We do this pretty much every birthday. Pizzas are their specialty and we really enjoy them! We even ordered a Hawaiian pizza yesterday just for me! Yummy! The grounds at Dos Rios are amazing. There are flowers everywhere and a little creek that runs through the property. It really is a great place to go for food, photos, and fun!
A friend then came to take the kids to play at her house while @panamapilgrim and I went out. We didn't really have anything we needed to do. We ended up going to a grocery store or two, stopping at the dollar store, and going by a ropa americana - a thrift shop. It's one of my favorite thrift shops, and he never goes with me, so it really was a treat! He ended up finding a really nice backpack, some pants, and a new shirt. I've recently been cleaning out my closet, so I didn't get anything, but that was ok!
After that, we went to a nice new restaurant in town. He had some steak, patacones, and a small salad. I had some chicken alfredo pasta and it cost us $18. Not bad!
Then we stopped and grabbed some ice cream to share with the kids and headed to pick them up. They had been having fun while we were out! It worked out well for both of us. Overall, it was a laid back birthday, but it was a good day!
Congratulations on your birthday, glad you had a great time. Greetings.
