birthday fun

I have a thoughtful hubby who made today a good day. My little sister Erin and her family were here yesterday and today. Last night, she and I did our biyearly children’s sale, a consignment sale we both sell and buy at that is great for good deals and the thrill of the hunt. This morning, Mark went out and got us all good baked goods, we went to community day at our park and got some more good deals from yard sale tables set up, went back to the children’s sale to collect the stuff we were selling that didn’t sell and to buy discounted stuff, and then finished off the day’s fun with a picnic at the playground with Chinese food and a yummy fruit tart dessert. Odd picnic food but very yummy. Mark gave me several gifts–he did very well. One of them was this really cool book of pictures and info about China. He also gave me an amazing set of sheets (800 thread count so they are nice and soft…can’t wait to sleep in them tonight on our new mattress), a gift certificate for a massage (love that!), AND a ticket to see the So You Think You Can Dance show on tour. My sister got a ticket as well for her birthday (2 days ago). So, we’ll a fun girls night out that night! Gotta run enjoy the rest of my birthday…
