Round 5

Just can't get enough of my birthday... =)
Received lots of fun cards and other gifts from family. Here are a few fun cards:

Such a sweet card from my sister

(outside)

(inside)

And, amazingly, this card from my mom was delivered. 

Despite having no stamp. Or postmark. Or return address.

(envelope)

(card)

My dad thought he sent his card late. 

Interestingly, it was the first one I received.

(outside)

(inside)

And I got other nice cards from grandparents and aunties. =)

And so it begins

Loaded up with pillows and blankets.

Started our childbirth classes. She's getting closer.

We've been Ghosted!

We were sitting around home tonight,
just minding our business.



When we heard some eerie noises outside our window.



And who burst in the door?

Tommy P!

And Mar-Mar!

They came "ghosting" and brought us these plates of yumminess:

Too bad they couldn't stick around for very long,
but apparently our house was stinky

and there were too many boxes in the way...

What great friends!
=)

Chomp!

Round 4

I'm so special they always give me a long weekend for my birthday. I didn't have work today, but Jill did. I dropped her off, tweeted about them filming Transformers 3, went grocery shopping (used lots of coupons and saved nearly 50% at Safeway), came home and watched Future Weapons on Netflix while doing several sinks full of dishes and two loads of laundry.

Went back to get Jill from work. She took some other pictures from her building of them filming. (Will update with videos later). Made dinner while she ran to UPS to pick up two packages that failed to get delivered to our place.

Had yummy salad with some grilled steak and chipotle salsa ranch. Watched Sherlock Holmes on Netflix and started downloading our photos and documenting our experiences of the last few days.

Got an awesome new present today - I'll blog about it later. Stayed up too late blogging, and am now headed to bed.

I know some other gifts/cards are on their way from other folks. We'll keep dragging this birthday out all week if we have to ;-)
