Sunday was Ryan's 32nd Birthday. Since the Curry's were here, we celebrated on Saturday night. The Stone's joined us for Chinese night at Gilbert's....holy moly, it was SO good. If you haven't been there before and you like chinese food, go. Now. We had a sitter for all of the boys, and we were done with dinner by 7:30. We HAD to do something else. Our goal was to stay out until 9. Geez, we are lame! We had NO idea what "cool" people do on a Saturday night. We tried the Recovery Room (that probably dates us a bit. That was Marci's "spot" in law school! Ha!) We drove by but it looks as though the Recovery Room is no longer. Now it looks like a regular hotel conference room or something. So we thought, maybe the Overton? Drive there, and on the way is Cafe J's....so we went there instead. It was E.M.P.T.Y. Turns out 7:30 is a bit early for the "going out" scene. But we stay anyways and have a blast. Between Ryan, Todd and Chris, we didn't stop laughing for 2 hours straight. As we were all yawning and ready to turn in for the night, it started filling up. We almost stayed out until 9:30, so that was a successful night! I know Ryan had a blast, and I am so glad we got to go out and be adults and have some fun to celebrate his special day!
The next day, for his actual birthday, we ate some delicious cake (strawberry, but with no real strawberries on top, his orders) and sang to him (he LOVES being sung to...), and spent time together as a family. As I took the Curry's to the airport, I gave him a birthday nap. We all know how much we love naps, but we usually feel a little guilty taking one during the day....well I ordered Ryan to take a nap, and he obeyed. Happy Birthday, Honey! Later that day we played some t-ball in the front, jumped on the trampoline in the evening, and celebrated with one more piece of cake that night with some of my family, too.
