Jen's birthday

Sunday night, the night before my birthday, Katie took off my old polish and painted my toe nails. She picked out the color and did such a wonderful job painting them. We also had to do hers and Morgans. Zach opted out this time saying that boys didn't get to paint their toes, although I could tell he wanted too.

Monday morning everyone told me Happy Birthday and gave me hugs. Then we got ready, ran to the store and then to lunch. We went to the Upper Crust, the food is always yummy. I got to wear the cheese hat while they sang Happy Birthday to me and had my picture taken. (I"ll post when they do.) Came home for naps, quiet time and time with the children. Trevor that evening took the children to the store to get my presents. They just beam when they hand a present to you. I got new measuring spoons and cups, a dish towel, pot holders, and a new silver and sparkly pink watch. Katie picked it, the watch, out all by herself and beams when she sees me wearing it. Katie had a picture of the family, she drew, for me too. We had suckers and watermelon for dessert, the happy birthday song and then it was off to bed for the children. I had really bad heart burn, which has not been common, so I just visited. It is one of the best birthdays I have ever had because I am loved so much. (Plus I didn't have to cook or clean up any meals... a fun break)
I am grateful for the cards received, birthday thoughts and gifts.
Thanks Mom and Dad for the song on the machine, I can't erase it yet. I am forever grateful I was born into your family too, it is one of my greatest gifts from God.
Thirty four is going to be a specular year, I can just feel it.
My gift from Trevor is yet to come... he says I get it in Twin Falls Friday.
