Happy B-Day

Today is Christophe's Birthday. I hope you're haveing a great day and we'll be sure to celebrate at the Del Mar race track this weekend!

Speaking of birthdays, mine was at the beginning of the month and it was a lot of fun. Birthdays as kids was always fun with the parties, favors, games and pinatas. But, as adults they seem to last about a week. My good friend Courtney took control of my birthday and called up Mark to find out what his plans were. He had planned to take me out all day on Sunday so that left Friday night open for a girls night out. Courtney sent the email to the "girls", made the dinner reservations and we were off. We went to Azul in Palm Springs which is an excellent restaurant but just as we were getting ready to order the electricity went out. The kitchen was then closed but thank goodness we could still order drinks, I didn't want anyone to get dehydrated sitting in the heat. We finished our drinks and headed to the casino for dancing, gambling and a few more drinks. It was a good time and thanks to everyone for celebrating. Now, don't get me wrong. The time I had with Mark was fantastic. We just didn't take a camara and I thought these pictures would be entertaining.

One of my favorite things is to go on a day date. It just has a different feel. Sort of like a vacation. To just walk about and hold hands is nice. Normally I'm pushing a stroller and he's carrying Peyton on his shoulders and we're constantly picking up flip flops that fell off or bunny whos been thrown. So, Mark had a sitter come at 10:00 in the morning I was thrilled. We went to bruch with Jen and Christophe and my brother Randy. It was so nice to sit and enjoy a meal with our worrying about the food being thrown on the floor or drinks being spilled.
