Early Birthday and Rex's Adventure

So my birthday was mostly on Monday. It was a great great day!!
It started with meeting up with a good old friend, who I have known since 1997... crazy..... ahh jr. high the old days huh Liz?

It was such a nice visit and so good to catch up

And Jamba Juice was an added bonus. It was a nice start to a wonderful day!

I then was instructed to hurry home, because Rex had to go to work. So I rushed home gathered the kidos and went to Jolyne's for lunch. It was tasty too and nice to catch up. After a while, I was getting ready to go home to get ready to go have lunch with Rex, when he walked in the door and said he got off work early.
 We chatted a while longer then Rex decided we needed to go home because he had to get the mail.....we turned the corner to the house and this is what I saw.

Rex did not work on Monday, but sent me away with friends who held me hostage for the day while he and lots of good friends got a whole fence up!!

What a nice gift!! I am so excited to have a little more privacy and be able to send the kidos out to play with out worrying.

After that surprise, we got spoiled by the Dickinsons with a wonderful meal of Mexican cuisine! Delish!


Here are my other treats

 A HUGE Vera Bradly bag that came with a matching check book holder, coin purse, pencil bag and make up bag. 

 

I haven't gotten this one yet, but Rex bought it off ebay yesterday for me. I LOVE LOVE LOVE this bag!! It is reversible too!!  EEKK! I love purses!

And this little gem was from my 3 boys. A new iPod shuffle engraved on the back " XOXOXOX Love your Boys" Rex tried to change the wording after he ordered it to say " Sara's Berkin Bag" but it was already shipped off. so I named it Berkin Bag on my iTunes account :)

Oops, I forgot the pic of my super cute apron. I will post that later.
 So, I was spoiled rotten and love it!!! I am very grateful for everyone and their efforts to make my early birthday a special day!!

Yesterday (my actual birthday) Rex got all of his teeth pulled and his dentures put in. He looks SO different but still cute. He already feels a TON better and is recovering well. It was scary at first because he was so dizzy and nauseous but after a good long nap, some yogurt and ice he was up and about and feeling great.

I will post pics of him once the swelling goes down some more.

Hope everyone is having a great 1st week of spring!!!!
