The Big 2-7!

Tom always makes my "Birth-Week" so special!  That's right I get a Birth-week!  I don't know how or when that started but I LOVE it!  My week started last Thursday when Tom and I went to Albuquerque.  We went for a doctor's appointment, but after that it was all fun and games!
We ate and shopped and ate and relaxed and ate!  We stayed at a hotel and even rented a movie in the hotel room, which we've never done, and just enjoyed each other w/ no other distractions.  The next morning we swam and ate and then went to the Temple.  It was a beautiful day w/ my wonderful husband. 
The weekend continued in bliss, but the best surprise came when Tom told me that he got me off of work for my Birthday.  That was seriously the best present EVER!  He made me my favorite breakfast, crepes, w/ lots of other options...cinnamon rolls, bacon, sausage...can you say calories?  Don't worry I ate every bite!
Yes I ate a lot this week!!! :)
These coupons were part of my gift.  I hope you can see the pictures, I can't help but smile at my cute man.
Then to top it all off my mom took me to Wal-mart last night.  One of my favorite things in college was when my mom would visit and take Tom and I to Walmart.  You get to actually look at all those wonderful things Walmart has to offer that you normally completely avoid.  Just hanging out w/ my mom was the biggest treat of all, but I can't tell you how fun it was to bring all my treasures home.  Thanks mom, I love you!
Thank you Tom for another amazing Birth-week.
The temple. 
I'm so grateful for the gospel.  I seriously don't know what I'd do or where I'd be without my testimony.
