“The submission of one’s will is really the only uniquely personal thing we have to place on God’s altar. The many other things we ‘give’ … are actually the things He has already given or loaned to us.”

Happy Birthday to Me!!

I didn't post what we did for my bday last year, and I don't remember what we did, and that made me sad.

So...I'm posting what Shayne did for me, b/c it was so nice...and I want to remember.

While I was showering and getting ready for the day, Shayne & The Bug colored me a birthday card. It beat ANY store bought card you could find...it was so cute! Then The Bug came upstairs carrying my presents...a new fishing shirt (which I will be loving this summer) and a very cool new pink Carhardt cap (I'm definitely a cap wearer.) Shayne had also ordered me a Kindle to read books on, but it hadn't shown up yet. So...I scored in the present department!!

Then, Shayne found a baby sitter for The Bug, and we went on a drive to Homer...just the two of us. It's such a pretty drive, especially when it's sunny. And it was sunny!

It was a beautiful day...BEAUTIFUL!! The sun was shining and it was warm too. So, we drove down there, and while we were there we checked out a pop-up camper for sale we're interested in getting for camping this summer.

We went to a bookstore and browsed around, and then ended up having dinner at the Land's End Restaurant...I thought it was so good. I ate more than I truly could fit in my stomach being almost 35 weeks along, but it was so yummy!

We didn't get home until 7 or 8 pm that night, and The Bug had a blast at the Pugh's. Thank you Jeannette & Dan for watching him for us.

It was so nice spending time with my best friend for my birthday. I could not have asked for a better birthday...

Thank you Shayne and The Bug! I love you both LOTS!!!
