It was my 34th birthday today. Gracie woke up at 7 AM excited to see the dog. I left home around 7:30 to go to work. Gracie said happy birthday as I walked out the door. At around 9:30 AM I got a text from Rachel wishing me happy birthday. She forgot. I thought it was pretty funny – especially since I was looking for all kinds of documents this morning because my drivers license expired today. I think she realized it when she logged into facebook. I wasn’t mad or hurt or anything, I just thought it was funny.

I went to lunch with Aaron today. We generally go to Red Maple together every other week or so. We are the only ones that like it. He paid for my lunch. He didn’t even know it was my birthday.

I was surprised at how many birthday wishes I got on Facebook today – really surprised. It was nice to be thought of.

When I got home from work Rachel had made a nice dinner. We then had family home evening in the back yard. We talked about rules for training Daisy and how to treat her. Gehrig wanted to play wiffle ball, so he and I played while Rachel and Gracie weeded the garden. We just had a fun evening outside. We then went inside for ice cream.
