Twenty-eight is Grrrreat!!

On Friday, Feb. 12th, I celebrated my 28th birthday! It was such a wonderful day...I'm hoping that this year follows that trend.
Frist, I went on the first field trip ever organized by yours truly! Last I read The Lightning Thief with my Language Arts classes. The movie came out Friday, so I decided to take my kiddos. We had a great time and enjoyed the movie very much! And thanks to my colleagues for the thoughtful birthday cards and gifts!

Second, I had dinner at Roger and Linny's (M's parents) house. My mom was in town to come to dinner. This is the first time in about 5 years that she has been in town for my birthday. Linny cooked a delicious dinner (steak and veggies) and made her famous chocolate cake (she made the same cake for our wedding). Michael's brother, Zach, was there to celebrate (and a shout-out to Zach who turned 26 last week!!) I scored some awesome Uggs, a red pashmina, a cool cat clock, and some pretty sweet gift cards.
I am so lucky to have my amazing family - thanks for helping me celebrate!!
