I have honestly had a wonderful birthday.
I came home on Friday to some pretty flowers that Bear arranged for me.
Then we hosted a game night pitch-in, we played some great games, had a small nerf gun fight, and ate a lot of cupckaes (some friends of mine just finished a cake decorating class and they brought 40 cupcakes)
On Saturday I got a massage and then headed out to have dinner with some more friends on Saturday. I also had a family dinner on Sunday, lunch today and I went to see the new movie Mirror Mirror. Its been a great weekend and I super nice birthday. I also get some very nice gifts...
