Birthdays

Thursday was my birthday!  I have the best husband in the whole world.  He made it so great, along with all my other amazing friends and family.  

+Thursday we both took work off, and slept in until 10:00.  That could have made my birthday complete. 

+We went to lunch with my mom and grandparents at the Harvest.  I had there pan seared Halibut, which was so amazing.  Then finish it off with amazing creme brulee (my weakness) and I was in pure heaven.  

+Tyler took me shopping and I got some cute new shirts.  They were much needed. 

+ I had Tsunami for dinner.  I love sushi.

+ On Friday my amazing teacher I work with, Rosie, had me lunch brought in.  We had Zupas.  It was so good!  I felt so loved at work :)

+ That night we went to the Mandarin restaurant in Bountiful, with my mom's side of the family.  They are so nice and always call me up and offer to take me somewhere for my birthday.  They are the best!

+ So let me rave for a few moments about this magnificent place.  You truly have not had chinese food until you have eaten here.  If you eat here you have to be sure to eat three things.  First, their egg rolls.  These aren't just any egg rolls.  They are massive, like half a burrito.  That alone fills you half way up.  Second, is my all time favorite.  The Char Shu Won Ton soup.  It is probably the most amazing thing you could ever consume.  AMAZING. Third, the cashew chicken.  It is so full of vegetables with the chicken and sauce, it is pure perfection.  Of course everything I have ever even tried has been amazing.  Those are my three must haves.

+ There was only one down side to my birthday, unfortunately I got this nasty cold.  It just so happened to show up right on my birthday. It sort of just made me slightly grumpy, even though I was having such a great birthday.  

Now on Saturday we got to celebrate my fantastic Grandma Thelma Lou's 80th birthday.  She is such an amazing grandma.  She is such an incredible person.  We threw her a surprise birthday party at the Lion House.  With lots of singing and dancing.  It was such a great weekend!
