Lem got to enjoy what we like to refer to as a Birthday Extravaganza this year (meaning you get to celebrate with more than one special event over a couple of days.) We kicked off his celebrating with a special Night Away date. Nanny and Papa had a sleepover with the girls at our house, which went MUCH better than our last attempt when the girls stayed at their house. Lem and I had dinner at Simon's, dressed in our finest (any excuse to dress up fancy, you know?) It just so happened that Lem's Aunt and Uncle ended up being seating at the table next to us! So, we got to not only enjoy a delicious, kid-free meal, but great company as well! At the end of our meal our server told us out bill had mysteriously fallen into other hands. Gary and Lynda had paid for our dinner for us! So sweet and generous! Probably the best tasting free dinner we've ever had :)
We were spending the night at one of the new hotels in town. Lem's gotten in the habit of doing online surveys to earn Rewards Points. He'd stocked up enough point to earn us a free stay. Lem got to open up some presents from me and then went on a very late night run to Dairy Queen for some
yummies for us. The next morning we had a scrumptious breakfast at Village Inn before heading home to our girls.
On Lem's actual birthday we had his fam over for dinner and cake. I was pretty stoked to be doing my first round of bday decorating at the new house. Sycely and I made and decorated a cake and we opened presents before Papa had to head to work. The next weekend we were able to enjoy some drinks and appetizers to celebrate with some friends as well. Technically, it was an extravaganza but next year is sure to be the most spectacular yet as Lem turns 30!
