Happy Happy

Well, my birthday (and birthweekend) came and went. I'm now 33.

The weekend was fabulous - just as I'd hoped it would be. My family took me out for dinner on Friday night and then Saturday day I spent being a virtual vegetable. It was a miserable day (weather wise), so why not spend it indoors in PJs? That night, my man took me to Hoboken. We took the train in (really the highlight of the weekend since I love trains) and had dinner at a cute Italian restaurant and then walked around to see the town a little. It was cold and windy, so we ended up taking the train home around 10:30. Overall, a fabulous night. To add to the excitement, as we waited for the train into Hoboken, WILD weather started whipping up. Blue and green lightning (yes, you read right) and wild wind were the highlights. I actually started to run for shelter - but the train pulled up. I was in weather heaven.

Sunday was great too. Since it was my birthday, my man said we could do whatever I wanted. WHATEVER I wanted? Did he know what he was saying?? Ok... I chose shopping. I had gift cards burning a hole in my pocket (or purse to be exact) so we took a trip to the factory outlets in central NJ and I ended up getting fabulous boots (originally $99, I got them for $22.95). Yep - I love a great deal. We stopped @ the mall on the way home so I could use another gift card I had, and I was set - with all my goodies.

Overall, it was a great birth-weekend. And I'm very lucky and fortunate to have such a great family and wonderful man in my life.
