{Birthweek Fun}

Monday was my birthday.
But I am not the kind of gal that spends one day celebrating.
I drag it out as long a possible, I call it my birthweek.
This year was not exception.

On Sunday, Rex threw a little cake and ice cream party for me.
It really was quite sweet of him.
He had balloons, hung streamers, and even made the cake. A real cake. Two layers!
I got the biggest kick out of watching him frost it.
Pretty impressive eh?



Along with the party came a fun date night, my parents coming down for the week, shopping,
and finally putting the finishing touches on my playroom/den.

It was pretty great week, even if it meant turning 27.
It actually makes me sick to my stomach to think I am 27.
I feels like just yesterday I graduated from high school.
You know what makes me feel better about it? Rex will be 34 in June!

Glad to see you had a good birthweek! Way to go Rex, pink frosting and everything! I can't believe you're 27 either...but age really doesn't matter after high school, right? Seth is already starting to worry about turning 30 next year...haha, at least you have a few years before that happens!

So how cute is your husband - props to him! Happy Birthday. How fun that your parents came down for it too. 27 isn't old! At least that is what I tell myself since I will soon be joining you in that club. I in Young Womens and I have a hard time because I think, wasn't I just here? But not. We are getting old and it is crazy.

And I agree that it should be celebrated all week!

Happy Birthday, Nat! Sounds like the festivities were lots of fun. I don't feel as bad turning 27 this year either...because my husband is turning 35! We're just spring chicks compared to them! :)
