Well, I must say I had a great birthday. It was actually a birthday weekend. I can't believe l'm 32. It seems like yesterday I was just turning 21 and planning a wedding. Dad was counting up the years until I'm 40 (with great pleasure I might add....that is until I reminded him he would be 62 then.)
Brad coordinated Deardre bringing Drew and the girls to surprise me at school. Drew came running in with flowers (that were bigger than him) and a card Daddy made. It was so cute. Then all he was interested in was the water fountain. Daddy even made sure he was dressed and his hair done just like Momma likes. I guess I've trained him well, huh? I love you, Brad!
Brad usually cooks me dinner. Yes, isn't he great? He makes this dish that he copied from Carrabba's. It is the shrimp, scallop, and pasta dish. Forget what it is called. He went to the store and worked so hard on it. I fed Drew and gave him his bath as he was cooking dinner. I bee bopped through the kitchen several times while he was cooking and grabbed a scallop and ooohhhhed and aaahhhed over the great taste. Brad plated it up and I took a bite. Mmmm...so good. I then took a closer look and quickly thought, "what kind of pepper did he use?" About that time, Brad was staring at his plate with a strange look. I then looked back at mine. No!!!! It couldn't be. We both said bugs about the same time. Evidently, some weevils got into our Old Bay Seasoning. That seasoning was in there FOREVER and I never threw it away. Brad was disappointed and it left us craving the dish even more. So much so, that I got myself up and went to Publix to get more seafood, pasta, and YES new Old Bay! Thank God Publix is only a few minutes away. It was even yummier the second time!!
Oh well, neither of us will forget this birthday dinner!!

Love you all,

You have a good man! So nice that he thought out the day so nicely for you, bugs and all! I am so glad you blogged this, becuase I have been thinking about this story and laughing about it since you told me Tuesday night!
I am glad I could take you down memory lane with the pictures on my blog. Girl, you did have some big hair and black eyeliner. I do believe that Leslie and I tried to do and intervention on your hair and eye make-up, but you would have no part of it! I loved your hair, it just shaped you into the wonderful woman you are now!
love you so much!
That's hilarious! Bugs for your birthday! Yummy! That Brad is a good man for cooking you a birthday dinner! Happy Birthday!
Happy Birthday Jennifer!!! Glad it was a good one, bugs and all! I'm coming up right behind you on the 32 mark...YIKES!
Happy late birthday Jennifer. I'll bet it made your heart feel all funny when Drew brought you those flowers. You have some good good men in your life! :) Even if Brad tries to sneak a few bugs in!
