that doesn\'t suck

that doesn\\\'t suck

I know. I promised you random crap this morning. I meant to finish it up on Sunday and have it posted for this morning, but my fabulous husband had other plans. Yesterday, my 39th birthday, the first day of the last days of my 30s, I awoke to the above note. I dove back into bed and text JJJ aka: Depends on my mood.
What I love:He looks good in a cowboy hat or a business suit and wears them both daily. But not together, that would be creepy.
Hobbies: Building furniture, remodeling homes, playing sports with our kids, laughing with me. Seriously.
, "I'm up."

You know how to tell your man really loves you? Bacon.

After breakfast, I laid in bed and read for about an hour and then we all got dressed and headed to the park.

J and I sat and relaxed while ColtonColton aka: Moose, Duece, Colt, CJ
Age:
3
Favorite Word:
Fart
Hobbies:
  Playing in the dirt, setting off fire alarms at preschool and bossing people around.
Best Qualities:
 The sweetest disposition this side of the Mississippi.
ran around and climbed trees. Where are the teenagers you ask? Someplace where I can't hear them complaining. That's where.

We walked down the coast and enjoyed lunch. By lunch I mean a Bloody Mary.

This was our "lunch" view.

After lunch J suggested we take a walk along the beach. That's when my gift arrived.

Jennifer Garner is SO jumping out of your cake next year babe. I don't care WHAT I have to do.

We got home around 1:30 p.m. and J suggested I take a shower. When I got out I stumbled upon this.

After my massage, I showered up and we headed out for dinner. So. You see. I simply had no time to write random shit. I was too busy enjoying a wonderful birthday carefully planned by my amazing husband. I don't want to rush things here, but I am really excited to see what he has in store for 40. (I just threw up a little bit in my mouth.)

Random crap will be up by the time you awake tomorrow. I promise.

The little bday note on the mirror has me singing that Squeeze song...

What a fun day! However my favorite part in your post (besides the delectable bloody mary shot) was, "Where are the teenagers you ask? Someplace where I can't hear them complaining. That's where."

We just finished my birthday dinner and I believe it was all my 14 & 16 yo boys could do to just hold on until our quality family time was over :-) Still love 'em though

I TOTALLY knew someone was going to bust my balls for that bacon picture. Bust my husband's. That is what he brought me. Don't think I didn't get my ass out of bed, stumble to the kitchen and eat four more pieces.

Randa,I believe there are actually two pieces of bacon. They are just really close together. If not, please don't anybody correct me. Let me go on thinking that, so I'll feel better about my own eating habits! (-:

Sounds like you had a wonderful Birthday!

UHM Why is there only one piece of bacon? Tell me PLEASE that there was more before you took that picture.
I know I'm only commenting on the first picture but I'm really concerned. Is it only me? Am I the only woman that eats more then one piece of bacon?
And this is why I have a weight problem.
