So, it’s almost my birthday. I’ll be the big 2-6 on March 2. (Yeah, I get to share my birthday with Dr. Seuss.) So I can still say I’m mid-twenties, right?

We had a good weekend. Neal and I went to visit the in-laws since it was his mother’s birthday last week. We went out to dinner, and it was very, very good. I got an amaretto creme brulee for desert. Hello! Amazing!

Recently, I had a fun girls’ day with my friends. Among some other things, we played Guitar Hero and Jess brought a microphone so we could sing, too! It was awesome and so much fun.

Well, for my birthday, my in-laws gave me this:

A microphone for Guitar Hero! Whoo hoo! Isn’t Simone a good model? Neal and I tested it out and it’s pretty cool.

I also got my first glance at the in-laws remodeled kitchen and it’s really super cool. I’m impressed because they did it pretty much all themselves.

Sunday, Mom took me shopping for my birthday. We had a great time shopping and had a great dinner. It was a really nice way to celebrate my birthday. After we got home, I celebrated with some peanut butter chocolate chip cookies.

They were super good. Yum!

Tomorrow, I get a half-day at work because of the occasion. I’m excited to come home and hang out with Ferris and Simone in the afternoon. I also have a fun dinner planned, so check back to see what I cook up!
