Sweet Surprises!

I had such a fun birthday weekend~ I didn't think anyone would know that I was having a bday at school, but my para (who is wonderful) in my classroom figured things out and baked me a cake ( she knows i love chocolate!) and had my kids make cards. I also got beautiful flowers from my "big and little friends"... too cute.

Saturday morning Jesse and I met up with mom, Lo and Mike for breakfast at the Village Inn. It was a great visit- only I forgot my camera! It's always nice to see family~ but for some reason, it's even better on your birthday. After breakfast, Jesse and I went shopping around the mall for a bit, then went to pick out wedding cake ( I am terrible with decisions... so far, it looks like we are having carrot cake, white cake, marble cake and chocolate cake....help!), and then I went to figure out who is decorating for our reception. I was tired and a bit cranky after all that~ so I hopped in the car and off we drove. Before i knew it, we were heading to Duluth for my surprise birthday trip. Jesse decided to take me there for the day, buy me a new outfit, and then take me out for dinner. I chose Angie's Cantina-- because I LoVe Mexican food-- It was a great trip~ and it was so nice not to think about anything of any importance for a while.
Thank you all for the birthday wishes and cards. :) xoxo
