Mike turned 27 on Wednesday! He requested a Funfetti cake with sprinkles. It might be a little messy looking but it tasted good!
We kept it simple with one candle.
Saturday we both got our haircut and then stopped by Five Guys for lunch. The first time we ate at Five Guys it was in Pittsburgh with my sister. We are very excited that we have one in our area now. I forgot how great their burgers are. (This isn't a place for salad lovers.)
We decided to go out on a fancy date in honor of Valentine's Day, Mike's Birthday, and just because we hadn't gone on a nice date in quite a while. We decided to go to Brio because it is one of our favorite fancy restaurants. I'm very glad we had a reservation because there was a long wait for people who did not. Mike likes to order for me when we are on fancy dates.
I'm such a lucky girl!
I had the Carbonara...
...and Mike had the Chicken Milanese. We also shared some great spinach artichoke dip and the most amazing dessert panini ever. It was definitely a special occasion because we never order dessert. It was quite a splurge!

Mmmmmmmmmm......Five Guys!
What fun! Happy belated Bday, Mike! Suzi, love the picture of you!
Missed you guys on Sunday, and getting to sit next to you in big church! :) this week...
Hi, Absolutely love your blog!
So here is a question I've been debating with Kelly Stamps of KellysKorner:
If you father-in-law died - and he had a good, close relationship with your husband - would you attend his funeral?
Do you think being pregnant is a reason not to drive 4-5 hours to attend your father-in-law's funeral? Assuming of course you are otherwise healthy and having a normal pregnancy?
Of course, I'm sure you said "HECK YES"!! I would attend my father-in-law's funeral and NEVER think about abandoning my husband and his family during such a sad time!
Well, if you can believe it, there is one of our fellow bloggers named Melissa Stafford who can't be bothered to attend her father-in-law's funeral. Her father-in-law died earlier this week of cancer. She couldn't be bothered to go and visit him and now won't go to the funeral.
Melissa is pregnant. But she is going to the gym all the time, going shopping, going out to lunch with her friends. In other words, there is no health-related reason for her not to go to the funeral.
Can you believe this? Isn't this woman cruel and un-Godly? How can she be so mean and cold and neglect her husband at his time of need?
Truly unbelievable! Let her know what you think. Read the whole story here: http://staffordmoments.blogspot.com
Please pray for this woman and hope that God will forgive her cruelty, selfishness and cold, uncaring behaviour towards her poor husband (who by the way just lost his job and is unemployed).
