I had a great birthday this year.

I got up at 7:30 AM and David and Samuel were just getting home from grocery shopping. It was so nice to sleep in!

David then made us a nice bacon and egg breakfast!

That evening we went to the Kissimmee Steakhouse for dinner. We had never been there before and I wanted to try some place new for my birthday. I thought that it looked like a good place to try because they had some excellent specials on their website. The meals were delicious
David and Samuel enjoyed watching the chef cook on the open charcoal grill. We really enjoyed our dinner...but one hint for those wanting to go to this restaurant, if you look at the website and see specials, in order to get those specials you have to ask for that menu, otherwise they will give you the regular menu and you will end up paying about 3 times the amount. Luckily, I just happened to ask about the specials so they gave us the special menu. Perhaps this is also done so that locals get a different price than tourists?



After dinner we went and strolled around Magic Kingdom. We watched the parade and the fireworks. Samuel didn't really like waiting for the parade. But he did seem to like the parade itself.



(Side note: this week at daycare one of Samuel's teachers noted that Samuel doesn't have a lot of patience.....so waiting for anything is not Samuel's favorite activity)




You can see Samuel's puffy, red eyes because he just got done really yelling at the fact that we were waiting for the parade and we wouldn't just let him wander off where ever he wanted to go. Samuel is quite independent and pretty much has no fear of just going where he wants to go.

I really enjoyed my birthday. It was nice and relaxing. I got to spend some time with my two favorite people (David and Samuel) and I appreciate all of the thoughtful birthday wishes!

Now for your enjoyment I thought I would also include a video of Samuel dancing in David's shoes! I think that this was also part of my birthday gift because Samuel' came out of our room in order to put on his little performance!
