Happy Birthday To Us!

Matt turned 28 on the 27th, and today, the 28th, I am 28. That's right...Matt is one day older than me. Matt reminds me of how much he learned on that one day....apparently, he is much older as far as his maturity level.

We had a great week. We spent Sunday at the lake with my family. My parents are building a house on Keowee so we took a picnic lunch and enjoyed the boat some. Matt and I got some fun presents which was a great bonus. Something I am particularly excited about is a new rug and some shelves for the sun room (one of Maggie's play areas) that my parents gave us. I love for things to look put together, and that doesn't happen often with Magpie around. So, for now, we have an organized, but user friendly, sun room. Fun for me! Thanks, Mom and Dad!

Wednesday night, on Matt's birthday, we went to his parents house in Pelzer. That's right, his parents have moved to the Upstate. We are super pumped! Anyway, we had some delicious steaks and a fabulous, four layer, chocolate cake that Mrs. Gaymon made. It was definitely a labor of love for Matt. Maggie got to enjoy some as well. We were spoiled by more gifts from Matt's family. We both got some much needed clothes. Thank you, Mr. and Mrs. Gaymon!

You would think that would be the end to my birthday post, but there is more to come. Matt took tomorrow off of work, arranged a baby sitter, and he is going to do all of the projects I have lined up for him around the house. Wow! I am one blessed birthday girl! Happy 28th to the Gaymons!

Stay tuned....in a week, the most important birthday girl will be turning ONE!

Happy Birthday to you both! It sounds like you had fun celebrating. I agree that it is impossible to be organized with toys everywhere! Just wait until after Maggie's birthday! :)
