Best birthday present ever.

A SKid free weekend. In fact, 2 SKid free weekends in one month!!

So, today is my birthday. I'm a young'in so I won't disclose how old I've turned, by my OH has been fantastic today. He surprised me with a dozen roses (pink, red and white) and is taking me out to dinner in a couple hours. My coworkers brought my brownies and cupcakes and I got a few nice cards in the mail.

The best part is, we have a wedding to go to this weekend (with an open bar!) and SKids are NOT invited. So we get to go out and dress up, stay in a hotel out of town. I can't wait. And even better, the weekend after next is my friend's going away party and I convinced OH to attend with me. Oh, and it is also an adult only party. Haha! October is looking to be a bright month. This is the first time in 3 years that the SKids have not been around for my birthday. I feel so lucky lol. Today is amazing!

Happy birthday! I'm jealous! We've had skids every year since we've been together (3 bdays). Sad DH and skids work very hard to make it special, but it isn't the same, though I do appreciate and love what they do. My skids and DS get so excited to pick out small gifts and make a cake for me. Really sweet, but not the same as getting dressed up and having a night out on the town. Like you, I'm still young and struggle with the change in bday celebrations. Lol! So happy for you! Enjoy!
