My weekend was wonderful.  On Friday night we had a small celebration at home with the kids. We had pizza. And ice cream cake. Cookies n cream, in case you’re wondering. After we dropped the kids off at Grammy’s on Saturday we had a little bit of time to kill so my husband took me to Sephora.  Ladies, he even WENT into the store with me (okay, he left for a while to go get us coffee, but still)!  After that, finally, a little before 4:00 PM on Saturday he let me know what we were doing.  I was not disappointed! We dined at The Herbfarm Restaurant .  9 courses. 6 wines. 4 hours. Amazing experience! The restaurant was very beautiful, but I only had my little point and shoot and nobody else was taking any pictures either so I just left the camera in the bag.  We spent the night just across the way at The Willows Lodge . The hotel was pet friendly: Note the sign: Our room: Us: I’m keeping this one...

the winner is…

Annie at Santiago Twin Girls correctly pegged my birth year as 1973.  I am 36! Those of you wonderful souls who guessed my birth year to be in the 80’s…… THANK YOU!   :-) More on my wonderful weekend soon!

Yes that’s right.  Today’s the day I find out what my husband has planned for me. I have the dress. I have the shoes.  I have no idea what we are doing.  So excited!!   And for you, I have a prize!   That’s right, just leave me a comment and let me know what year you think I was born.  The first commenter with the right answer will win my copy of Such a Pretty Fat by Jen Lancaster (it’s in good shape, I promise!)  AND a $20 Target gift card! RULES:  1) Family and friends and other people that know me in real life are not allowed to play this time – sorry, just too easy for you!!  2) You can only guess once.  So no leaving me 20 comments with a different year in each!

Seattle Dad at Luke I am Your Father tagged me to play along with this meme.  Gotta support my fellow Pacific Northwest bloggers, so here goes…. 1. Name someone with the same birthday as you: Teacher Mandy at my daughter’s preschool. 2. Where was your first kiss? Don’t exactly remember, but it was outside and I was 15 I think.  Yeah, that memorable. 3. Have you ever seriously vandalized someone else's property: NO 4. Have you ever hit someone of the opposite sex? Only jokingly. 5. Have you ever sung in front of a large number of people? This one time, at band camp…. 6. What's the first thing you notice about your preferred sex? Height. 7. What really turns you off? Bad table manners. 8. What do you order at Starbucks? Tall non-fat vanilla latte. 9. What is your biggest mistake? Not sure, but being mean to my sister when we were kids ranks pretty high on the list. 10. Have you ever hurt yourself on purpose? Yes. 11. Say something ...
