Happy Belated Belated Belated Birthday

I realize this post is 3 months old but oh well. It seems that's how blogging is going for me. Koki turned 33 back in March. I'm going to say he had a great birthday since I planned everything. The day before his birthday we took the boys out to eat and went to Disney on Ice. If I hadn't won the tickets I would have been so bothered that it was a big waste of money. The boys liked it but they didn't LOVE it. I think it's more of a girl thing. It was a free family outing so can't complain too much. I was amazed how much money people spend on Disney stuff. I was trying to take a picture of the lady and her daughter in front of us cause the daughter was decked out with Disney stuff and they kept buying the concessions but Koki told me to stop. All in all it was fun and that was our pre-birthday celebration with the boys.

In the morning we had Gideon stay home so he could have birthday breakfast with his dad. I arranged to have my sister watch the boys while Koki and I got a night away in Salt Lake. Koki got a massage for his birthday and we stuffed our faces at Tucanos. Unfortunately,Koki had a big grant application due that night so when we got back to the hotel he had to work on that for a bit. He felt bad but it was okay cause I ended up taking a 3 hour nap. The next day we did a little shopping and met up with friends for dinner and a movie.

I love my husband. He's a wonderful man who continues to amaze me and those around him. Happy Belated Belated Belated Birthday Babe.
