I have to say something about our birthdays! Even though it does mean we're getting older, noticing wrinkles and someone is closer to the age of 30 then they are 20. Yikes!! Sorry sweets!
My birthday was in November and was a pretty normal work day. Isn't it sad how birthdays become less of an excitement as you get older? Well the day before then Kevin's little brother was in a Mtn. bike accident down and Dixie State, life flighted to Vegas and found out he broke part of his back. Long story short, this kid is a walking miracle! He was out of the hospital within two days afterwards. So if you see a kid wearing a back brace down in St. George say hi to Rusty for us :) Anyway, I had to tell that story so you would understand why my father forgot my birthday. My dad texted me, that's right texted! I didn't even know he knew how to text! He was asking how Rusty's doing since I had called them the night before to tell them about it. I give him a call and ask why he's texting me and forgetting my birthday! Oh well, it's more funny then anything.
Back to my birthday: I opened up my present from Kevin in the morning, which was some awesome socks and nice gloves to keep me warm. I went to work. We went out for sushi, which is pretty much a tradition for my birthday I have decided since I love sushi! We went to Happy Sumo which is pretty close to us and I wasn't in the mood to go downtown. It was delicious and now I'm wanting a Vegas roll. Kevin also gave me some money for a shopping spree at my favorite store: Gordmans! It's like JCP, Ross, and TJMaxx combined but SUPER organized which I LOVE!! Everything is about 65% too. It was a wonderful birthday filled with cute clothes and a happy sushi filled tummy :)
Kevin's birthday was in December and it was on a Saturday which meant that for once he didn't have school or a final! He was awesome and helped the Elder's Quorum gather clothes for a homeless shelter type of place. Once he got home then I made his favorite Breakfast Casserole and thankfully did it justice! His dad always makes it and I was afraid I'd mess it up. After breakfast we drove up to meet a guy that had Kevin's birthday present: An Elite Orange Peyton Manning Jersey. I found it on KSL for $60 and HAD to get it for him! He then worked out with P-Mo while I got a few groceries. Then we headed to the Jazz vs. Spurs game since my boss gave us tickets. We were pretty special and got the yummy dinner first and 2nd row. Can a birthday boy be any more spoiled!? After the game we met up with some friends to see the Temple Lights, then headed back to our house for brownies and ice cream. It wasn't the birthday I had planned (Bear Lake and skiing with friends) but I'd say he still had a good one :) Here's to many more birthdays, wrinkles, grey hair and so much more!
