Birthday fun

Whew- fantastic and fast paced weekend.

Let's rewind...

I survived the hospital Tuesday (and Matt survived our run), and Wednesday I had a student so the day marched by rather quickly. Thursday I did 8 miles before an office day, Friday I woke up cleaning before a grumpy office day...can't have all good days :) I had a pukish 3 mile run after work before my parents, sister, and McKenzie made it into town. Matt and I knew Saturday would be a veryyyy long day so we crashed soon after they arrived.

Saturday morning Matt was up at 5 for the hunting club with Macie, so I slept until 6:45ish before waking up and talking it up with my dad before heading out for an 8 mile run...did 5 by myself then picked up Meg for the last 3...so fun running with the sis, seriously I love it. We went and got coffee afterwards while waiting for it to warm up a bit outside for some pool time. We made it out there about 11 when Matt and dad left for a game of golf. It felt wonderful outside but the pool was freeeezing! Definitely no more water time for me.

Us girls left the pool about 2:15 to pick up Matt's gift, then made a mad dash back home to start getting ready for Matt and Brandi's surprise birthday dinner. Mom, dad, Meg, and McKenzie headed to Savannah while Matt and I picked up the cake...totally misspelled Matt's name on it somehow, so he is now referred to as "Malt". The birthday dinner was a total surprise for Brandi since she thought she was just having dinner with Darin, Matt and I. Matt knew a bit more since I couldn't let him go to the other hunting club for the weekend and he asks too many questions. Dinner was fun and I loved seeing everyone there to help celebrate Matt and Brandi's 30th!

This morning we all slept in until 8:30 before getting up and moving. We made coffee and a big waffle breakfast to kick off Matt's actual birthday. We didn't make it to church and took our time getting ready for the day instead. Meg and McKenzie met up with Adam in Savannah for the packets game, mom and dad went outlet shopping, and Matt and I did our normal Sunday grocery shopping and errand running. We met up with mom and dad at Tavern 46 right up the road for a late, large lunch...it was so gooooood. We came back home, 10lbs heavier, and laid around waiting for Adam, Meg, and McKenzie to make it back home for more cake and ice cream. We sang and ate the most delicious German chocolate cake ever, and I don't usually like that kind! My family left a little bit ago and we're just relaxing :)

Happy Sunday! And happy 30th to my handsome husband!
