Great Birthday

Today was my birthday and it was GREAT! We celebrated last night with "the household." We all went to eat at a Japanese Steakhouse, which for me always comes with consequences but so worth it! Tyler loved all the ruckus that went on and squinted at the fire. Then we had a K-Factor Tennis cake and opened presents. John-E and Jenny got me a 25 piece knife set and a marble cheese board cutter. Scott and my family in Iowa pitched in and got me 2 new tennis racquets (K-Factor/K-Blade 98 to be exact)! I'm really excited because I've been playing with the same racquets for 10 years! Scott's parents got me a "too small for her" golf glove, which was PERFECT for me, a kitchen towel that she put "God loves Stay at Home Mom's" it is so sweet, and gift certificate to Target (my favorite and it helps that it is exactly 1 mile from my house!) My sister-in-law gave me an early gift of Bare Escentuals starter kit a few weeks ago, which I love! My friends called me all day and brought and sent flowers! It was really great! Thank you to everyone!!! I will post more pictures later! Tyler tried to steal my tennis racquet and Scott has some cute pictures from the restaurant on his camera!
