#27

Happy Birthday to me! I celebrated my 27th birthday on June 7. It was a fun day and Nate helped make it fun for me. I had to work, so that was pretty uneventful, except we did have a mouse in my office which stirred a few things up for Patti and I.
After work I went and picked up Ashley from Maria's and then we went and visited our friends Lisa and Wayne! We hadn't been by Home Fitness in awhile to say hi, so we were excited to see them. After we left there we stopped at daddy's work so that he could take Ashley while I went and got a massage!!!  It was fabulous. Nate had got me a gift certificate awhile back...I was thinking I would use it for a pregnancy massage, but I changed my mind. And this was the perfect day for it! After my massage Nate had coordinated a fun dinner for everyone. We went to Red Bean's Bayou Grill. Nate and I went to this restaurant when it was on the East side of Wichita numerous times during our dating years. They have a delicious pasta that we both loved and so he thought that would be a fun place to go. We had a big group...Mom, Dad, Cassie, Jamie, Hudson, Tate, Annie, Callista, Carver, Luke, Allison, Jacob, Mike, Ariya, and Sophie, and Roger and Dianna stopped by. It was a full table! Nate got me a great gift. He came up with it all on his own too...the cookbooks "Mastering the Art of French Cooking." Julie and Julia is one of my favorite movies, so I'm excited to make some recipes from these books. It will be an adventure. Thanks everyone for the great gifts and for coming out to celebrate my birthday!
