Day 26:

Anew; In a new form or manner.

Happy Birthday to Ava! :) It is her 1st birthday! She has been alive for one year. I have been alive for over 19. That is a loooong time! haha! I woke up in a way better mood today too,,, so hoorah! lol! And when i woke up, i had this genius idea to surprise Liz and Josh, and decorate the house with birthday decorations! Plus, that would kill a lot of time with the girls today, AND it would be suuuper fun! Yeeeah. So i dropped Anna off at school, put Ava down for her nap, and started planning. First step was actually finding a place that actually had decortions.... hmmm..... i had NO IDEA! hahaha! So i made a mental note to actually spend some time getting familiar with the area! lol! When Ava woke up, we hopped in the car and drove around, looking for somewhere... i spend a LOT of time driving up and down Boston Post Rd... until it was time to pick Anna up. hahah! So we went home, ate some lunch, and jumped in the car,, once again! I decided to try the Stop and Shop. Money. This little store reminds me somewhat of Maceys at home. And,, just like Maceys, it has a birthday card isle, and.. bingo. Ribbons, balloons, tissue paper, and wraping paper. Time to get creative. hahaha! We went home, and got to work! It was so fun! We made streamers using the tissue paper and ribbon. Anna rolled up the tissue paper, and i tied them together with the ribbon and hung them up around the house. I blew up the balloons (Anna wanted to help, but her little lungs just didn't have the capacity, her face was a purpleish color when she was done trying to blow it up. haha) and she put them in a pile! Then we made a big sign (with the wrapping paper) that said 'Happy Birthday Ava & Anna'! Oh yeah, i forgot to mention, Ava was sharing her birthday with Anna... :) lol. So that took up a lot of time, we got done around 5! So we went to the park for a bit, Anna brought her scooter, and i had the stroller for Ava! Now,,, let me tell you about the weather. Okay, so in Utah when it rains, it is either pouring, lightly raining, or sprinkling. Well here i have experienced a new kind. I would like to call it 'Misting'. So we stepped out of the car at the park, and it was misting. It was like one of those misters at theme parks, but EVERYWHERE. And,, lucky me, i decided to wear my glasses this day. pahaha. They were full blown misted in like 1 second. hahaha. It was funny! We didn't stay for too long, because it started to legitimately rain, so we went home, drank some hot chocolate, and waited for Liz and Josh to get home. Btw, i just decided to call them Lizjosh. Okay? Okay. :) We counted to 100 twice, and they arrived! We turned out all the lights, and when they got to the door... SURPRISE!! And yes, they sure were surprised! Yay! haha! So they had brought home pizza, and the most delectable, scrumptious, phenomenal looking cupcakes i have EVER seen. OOOOHhhhh glory. lol! They got six different flavors,, one was the 'Pinkalicious' for Anna. Then there was Apple Caramel, Red Velvet, Blackout, Peanut Butter Chocolate, and Something de Leche (i forgot. haha). So Anna ate the pink one, then we cut up the others so we could try them all! Talk about delicious. You know how i loved the cupcake they brought back before? Yeah, doesn't even compare to these ones. Yup, my mouth is now currently watering. hahaha! Yum yum yum. Peace.
