Dzana's Birthday

Since my birthday coincided with the night of Lynnae’s 3rd grade concert, I asked Andy if we could celebrate my birthday the night after. I thought that way we would be able to take it easy and get things done in a way that wouldn’t keep kids up until 11pm or something crazy.

Andy asked me what I wanted for dinner. And I told him I didn’t want anything that was going to require a huge production. The theme of my birthday this year was “relax”. So I asked if he could pick up some fast food for us... And we decided that Burgermaster sounded really good. Then, earlier on the day we were celebrating, I was talking with Candice and asked if she and Matt would like to come over... So they joined us too.

After we ate I opened some presents. My favorite gift was easily Aperture. My brother had helped Andy buy it for me. (So thank you to both Andy and Jordan.) I also really, really was excited at my page-a-day Sudoku calendar. I love that puzzle game! And Andy gave me the new Banjo-Kazooie game too. Banjo-Kazooie was the game that Andy and I fell in love with on the Nintendo 64, the year that we were married. When we heard that they were releasing a new game for the X-Box this year, we knew we would have to buy it. Unfortunately, it’s still in its packaging... But hopefully soon it will be time to play!

Then we did cake and ice cream. All in all it was probably one of my favorite birthdays ever. Things had been so crazy and busy in our life for the month before and after, I wanted to just have one special and relaxing day where I could stop. And my wonderful family gave that to me... Thank you!
