END OF MY BIRITHDAY WEEK

It is now the end of the week that I refer to as my birthday week. We have just finished the cake and the party is over. I had a great week though. Starting last weekend I was able to get up to Nephi and visit my brother, Tom, and his family. The reason for the visit was a surprise from Tom about my new car. A silver 2001 Volvo S40. It has been a great car so far, a couple little issues, but my brother Ian will take it next week to get the kinks out. Looking forward to that!

Jen and I bothe took the my birth day off and ran down to Anahiem for a quick trip to Disneyland. I got in free, and so we thought we would go. We had a great time. We went on Indiana Jones, Pirates, Haunted Mansion, Splash Mountain, Thunder Moutain, had a quick bite (shared a roast beef sandwich and some fries), Materhorn, Space Mountain and Buzz. It was a great time. We finished the night with a trip to my favorite restaurant, joined by the in-laws. We then went over there and picked up the cake. We were too full to have more than a couple bites of ice cream, so the cake was sent home with us. I was able to drive most of the way home that time. I probably would have been able to make it all the way if I wasn't stopped by the best CHP ever. He doesn't give tickets on your birthday, so I just have a fix it ticket!! Awesome!!

The next day, back at work, my desk was covered by a metallic rainbow of decoration. It was a little much but the peeps at the office made me feel ever so special. I was taken out on Monday and Wednesday by two groups of co-workers. It is nice to be a co-worker again. Being the boss sucks.

I was able to get caught up with most of the work thank goodness, but I am still a little bit out of it when talking about school. Thats why it took so long to get back to the blog. Anyway, had a nice time yesterday going to the movies and then picking up my iPhone. We spent the rest of the night with a friend that was also celebrating birthday week!!
