Birthday weekend

Well, I must say I had a blast of a birthday weekend! Friday we had dinner and Martinis with family and a couple of friends. Hubby made kabobs and risotto and lemon drop martinis.

He also made my birthday cake which was turtle (a.k.a. chocolate, Carmel, and pecans), topped off with coffee ice cream for me. :) We played some Bond trivia (thanks to my sister-in-law Kim for putting it together for us).

I opened some SWEET presents (Cutler jersey, trench coat, scratch tickets, and roses).

Then it was off to the late night showing of the newest Bond movie Quantum of Solace. I thought it was GREAT!!! It was a continuation of Casino Royale, so Hubby and I explained the plot and a couple key points to our friends Tracy and Radu on the way to the theater. It was an intense and action packed 2 hours. But worth every minute.

Saturday I was all over the country side taking pictures for my dad's work again. I can tell I'm a country girl at heart, when even though I get lost on the back roads I enjoy the whole trip. This time I saw a lot of wild life (though unfortunately no pictures of them). I saw buffalo, deer, a coyote, long horns, and lots of cows.

The beauty of the country is always soothing to the soul, although sitting in a car for 5.5 hours is not. :(

Today was spent at church and then home to catch the last of the Broncos game...

which I personally believe that my jersey brought good luck for! What a great birthday weekend!!! :-D
