Jim birthday was on April 6th. Normally, I am really good at surprising Jim with his birthday presents but this year I need his help picking it up since I was over 150lbs. It was a bbq which was a combination charcoal and gas grill. Jim says he LOVES it and we have already used it 3 times. On the Saturday before his birthday, we had to assemble it together and it took Jim and I 4 hours to complete it.
On Jim's actual Birthday, I invited some of Jim's work friend to dinner at his favorite sushi restaurant. I dropped off birthday balloons at the restaurant and then went home to get dressed and pick up Jim. The Owner of the restaurant was very sweet and gave up free appetizers, a free birthday shot for the entire party, sake bombs for $1.00 and dessert. Jim thought that was so cool... very VIP! ;)
Thursday night, Jim's parents came up to our house and took us out for Jim's birthday to La Casita. They visited for a while afterwards and then drove back home with Hannah and Lucy in the car with them. Woohooo... we were dog free for a few days.
On Friday evening, Jim and I went to Vegas with Jarrod, Katie, Ryan and Stephanie. It was a fun weekend. We gambled, eat a lot, drank and gambled some more. Ryan won a progressive jackpot which was really exciting.
As a final birthday celebration, Jim's Parents came to the house to deliver the dogs back to us and Jim's Mom made Jim his favorite brthday cake. Chocolate cake with a chocolate peanut butter frosting. It's heavenly and tastes just like a Reese's peanut butter cup.
