My Birthday

So the last few years there really hasn't been too much focus on my birthday, not that I am complaining, but that's that way it's been since the boys came along.  I've been more than happy with the cake with dinner or breakfast form the hubby and kids.

This year however, I decided that I would treat myself to having the day to be an adult and do adult things.  I rarely get any time to myself so I had asked for the off to do whatever I wanted.  The kids went to my mother's house and enjoyed their day as usual.  The hubby took the boys over and allowed me to sleep in until 8:30 am. 8:30!!!! I couldn't believe it.  It's rare now a days to sleep until that time so I was completely shocked when I woke up and realized what time it was.

I enjoyed taking my time getting ready and then headed to a new little place called Bacon N Butter that I had been wanting to try for breakfast.  Oh, it was AWESOME!!! They had great crispy thick sliced bacon.....my mouth waters thinking about it now.  We sat by a window and chatted and watched the morning go by.

an egg on top) and the "simple man" breakfast

We enjoyed a little stroll downtown after breakfast and headed to meet up with Blia and Kong, where we ate some more.  It was nice to not have to be anywhere by a certain time.  We even caught a movie in the middle of the day.  We saw Pitch Perfect.  It was a great funny little flick, nothing too serious.  It was a good laugh.

What I loved best was that I decided to make it a day for me.  Having those kind of days are good because they help to keep me sane and therefore better to take care if my family.  It was a good day.
