cupcakes and surpises!

Friday I decided to make cupcakes for a neighbors birthday, and use some for my birthday on Sunday. AJ and Anson wanted to help, if eating all the frosting is helping? Anson was eating applesauce thinking this was the best thing ever. ( how sneaky I am). It turns out Grayson is the sneaky one. Starting Saturday morning I called about a coffee table being sold on KSL, the seller tells me its sold already too bad:( BUT as I'm finishing frosting cupcakes, Grayson says "the glass on our table is broken" I come into the living room and here is the coffee table I wanted. "Happy birthday" my family says. I'm so excited thinking this is a GREAT birthday surprise. Later that afternoon we get ready to go to a birthday dinner just Grayson and I, I'm also very excited about this, I love good food. But Grayson wants to go to dinner at 5, who goes to dinner at five? We enjoy a wonderful dinner together, the check comes and Grayson wants me to pay ( it comes from the same checking account) so I put my card in the check and set it a side, when I look back sitting on the table is a ring box, I can't believe it, here is a BEAUTIFUL ring better than my first!! ( if you don't know my first ring was lost when we moved into our house its almost been a year to the day of losing my ring. I've been heartbroken all year.) I can't believe what a great birthday this is. When we leave dinner I say its early let go to the movies right here (were in SLC) Grayson says he's hurting and needs to go home and get his meds, how can you argue with that. We head home and as we walk in the door there is a BIG "SURPRISE" my friends and family are there with a surprise party. Even my best friend from AZ (who said she was coming next weekend) also my brother from AZ. Its a '80s party everyone dressed in eighties clothing and hair.(no pics yet who knew I would need my camera) Everyone ate, sang karaoke 80s songs of course, we played a wild game of pictionary, ate my favorite cake, and enjoyed watching a slide show of me growing up. This was the best birthday EVER.

Thank you Grayson and Malissa for making this a great birthday I love you guys!

Here is my new coffee table and my ring.
