Happy Birthday to me!

I love that my Birthday is right around Martin Luther King Jr. Day. It means I get a day off right around my Birthday. Today my Birthday happened to fall on Martin Luther King Jr. Day which meant I got my Birthday off and because of this special holiday my kids were off of school. They also had Tuesday off for Teacher Comp day so I took the day off as well and got a very nice and much needed five day weekend. Unfortunately Tyler had to work so we celebrated my Birthday during the weekend.
Here are the Birthday events in order:
Friday was the usual Friday. I went and worked in Shay's classroom then picked up Shane and went grocery shopping. When I got home I had lots of Birthday cards in the mail and that was very exciting. My Parents went to their condo so they left me a card as well. All of the cards were filled with MONEY!!!!! How lucky am I? Thank you Mom and Dad, Mom and Dad Carver and Grandma.
Saturday we picked Shane up from work and went to Britton's soccer game which they won 8 to 1. Then we all headed to Texas Roadhouse for dinner.
Sunday we took the kids swimming then we rented the movie Despicable Me for family movie night.
Monday (my actual Birthday) Tyler went to work and the kids did not want to get out of their jammies. So we stayed in Jammies all day and watched Despicable Me again then I cleaned the house and did all of the laundry and made dinner. When Tyler got home he surprised me with my favorite pie from Marie Calendars. Tyler was exhausted so he went to bed around 9:00 and the kids and I went downstairs and watched spongebob and had a camp out. The kids slept on their cots and I slept on the couch. I haven't had such a terrible night sleep in a long time. But it will be a fun memory.
Tuesday Tyler got home from work a little early so he stayed home with the kids and I went out shopping with all of my Birthday money. I had the best Birthday. I appreciate Tyler and my kids so much. They really know how to make me feel special.

Thank you Britton and Shayna for working so hard on decorating my bedroom door. I love all of your art work and your sweet notes. I love you both SO MUCH!!

Last year I gave Shayna my old camera, every once in a while she will get it out and take pictures or record events that she thinks are important. On my Birthday she did several different recordings of her telling me Happy Birthday and how much she loves me. I need to get them saved so I can keep them forever. They are very special! Thank you Shay, You are a very sweet girl.
