Friends, Birthday Celebrations and a cheesy song!

My friend, Mackenna's mommy (have you ever realized how some mommies never call each other by their names, they just become Jane's mommy or Larry's mommy) took me out for my birthday to the restaurant of my choosing.

I'm not a fancy food type of eating girl and she knows me so well that she guessed the place I would choose.

Red Robin for the super mega massive burgers.

She hates meat and has gag reflexes if you eat with your mouth opened around her but, all in all, she still tolerates the place just for me. That's love.

My birthday was officially Feb. 10th but, you know I celebrate for the entire month.

What do you mean it's March? And your point is??? I know I'm late in posting photos! Hah!

Here's some photos of the event:







Your eyes ARE NOT playing tricks on you. She got me the brand spanking new DVD of my favorite film. Why did I get married. I truly LOVED THIS MOVIE and will add it to my collection of movies that I can watch over and over again and evoke all the same emotions over and over again when I watch them. Like Beaches. Come on now, we know how it's going to end but, there I am BALLING my eyes out as soon as this part of the movie starts to play.

Oops, I got off topic. Back to the birthday!



So we're sitting there having a good time enjoying the food and there's a table down and across from us having a blast. Of course I had to get in on the fun and sang happy birthday to them from across the room.

As soon as I whispered to my friend, I sure am glad they don't know it's my birthday so I can avoid that cute cheesy song and dance they perform for the birthday person. Wouldn't you know...she had already slipped the message to the waitress and her crew and yup, you guessed it, they sang and did a jig just for me.

How sweet. She giggled and took pictures from the sidelines. Isn't she the greatest?

What a great time. I had a HUGE serving of a Mango Margarita. If you're not an experienced drinker (of which I'm not) be sure to have a designated driver.

WE had a ball and decided to stay out a few more hours. Why? Because our husbands were home babysitting

with the kids and we felt so free without having to run after our toddlers that we went into the mall and walked aimlessly in store after store just taking in the peace and quiet.

It's a sign that you don't get out much if you close down a shopping mall and come out with bags full of stuff for your kids. *sigh*

All in all, I had a fabulous birthday celebration and can't wait until next year. Birthdays are so much fun especially when you spend it with a very cool friend!
