Happy Birthday Bobby!

June 6, 2010 | Uncategorized

Today was Bobby’s 27th Birthday.
The day started out with me making him breakfast in bed and giving him his presents (a couple blu ray’s and running shoes of course!) He ate on the birthday plate (we have a lot of traditions!)

Ok so we have this running joke we have had ever since Bobby’s 22nd birthday. I had gone into his apartment and decorated his room and made these signs and all this stuff for when he got home. Well, we kept the signs, and for my birthday a month later, he flipped the one around that said Bobby and wrote “Heather” in marker, and used all the same signs. on two of the signs I had “22” in glitter, and he even took a small scrap of paper and changed it to my age and paperclipped it to the sign. It was hilarious, and I called him lazy! Well, we have kept those stupid signs and put them out for each other’s b-days ever since and just change the slip of paper with the new number. So this morning I decorated the living room and you can see the signs I originally made 5 years ago!

here we are before we left for church

We went to church, came home and I cooked spaghetti for lunch and we vegged out for awhile, then went back to the church for leadership training. Then we went to coldstone for birthday ice cream! I got cheesecake with strawberries mixed in.

Now we are home just hanging out enjoying the last bit of birthday!
Today was rest day for me, I am so sore from my workout video I did! I did some foam rolling earlier and man did it hurt!!!

Hope everyone had a great weekend!

    That is too cute about your birthdays!! I totally would have proclaimed his laziness as well lol I don’t really have any birthday traditions except that every year, instead of a birthday cake, I get an angel food cake with strawberries and whipped cream. Mmmm! So good every time.

It’s been one month since my Virgin Voyages crui It’s been one month since my Virgin Voyages cruise and I’m still confused why no one is cooking gourmet food for me, or bringing me cocktails all day long. 😩

I had a super comfy bed with real cabin space, a tablet to control the lights, TV and curtains (I felt like a queen), and don’t even get me started on the food—every meal was ✨a moment.✨

Now I’m home reheating leftovers and wondering why my house doesn’t have mood lighting and a spa within walking distance.

10/10 would get spoiled again. 💅

I used to think dairy-free desserts were “just o I used to think dairy-free desserts were “just okay.” Like, fine in a pinch… but never something I craved. 👀

But then this little picnic happened—just me, my girl, and a sweet treat we both loved enough to fight over the last bite. 😅

We’ve been trying to be more mindful with food choices lately (especially with summer travel coming up), and I grabbed these So Delicious treats at Kroger kind of on a whim. The new packaging caught my eye, but it was the taste that totally surprised us. Creamy. Indulgent. No weird aftertaste. And no, we’re not fully dairy-free—and we still loved them.

It’s one of those little swaps that doesn’t feel like giving anything up.

And that? That’s a win for both of us. ✨@So_Delicious
