the adventure of the big 2-3

Last Tuesday was Spencer's birthday. He is finally my same age again! Those two months where I am "older" will always be filled with cougar and old lady jokes I am sure. The best part about being married is that birthdays become celebrations that span over several days because both sides of our families want to celebrate!


They are also fantastic because they mean free food if you are smart about it! Where did we get this free food you may ask, well...Spence got free burgers and Fuddruckers and Red Robin, free ice cream at Cold Stone, free sushi at Happy Sumo, and free breakfast at IHOP. The best part about all of these freebies is they are completely free, no requirement to purchase something of equal value! Let's just say, we've eaten out quite a few times over the past two weeks but it has been delicious! 
Not only did we get free food from signing up for birthday clubs, but Spencer's parents took us to Rodizio grill and my mom made us her famous homemade BBQ chicken pizza. We obviously haven't gone hungry over the past few weeks and will be working it all off over the next few weeks, thank heavens we have Jillian Michaels to kick us into gear!

I'm so grateful to me married to such an amazing man and am so dang lucky to have him in my life. Happy Birthday Spence! 

Spence studying ALL day on his birthday...so much fun (sarcasm)

New shirt, new putter, new practice green....love your wife 


Votive "birthday" heart candle... totally normal huh...
