As expected, February continues to be a busy, yet fantastic month! I celebrated my birthday this past weekend and it ended up being about as perfect as a birthday can be! John made me my favorite breakfast of french toast, bacon and Starbucks. We then headed off to the town of Penzance for the afternoon for some exploring and even a little bit of shopping. It has been raining every day here for the past couple of weeks, so we lucked out with a day filled with sun! Once back home Saturday evening, we decided to stay in, relax and catch up on some of our favorite shows. A really fun part of the day was opening up this huge box sent to me from Emily. I just about fell off of my chair when I opened it up to find some of my favorite American foods and treats that we they don’t sell here. She even sent two loaves of her famous banana bread! It didn’t take long for me to have a meal of cheeseburger macaroni hamburger helper (I know, very high class :-) and eat some of my absolute favorite microwave popcorn of movie theatre butter!
John also surprised me with the neatest cake from a bakery here in Truro. The cake is shaped just like a teapot and was the perfect size for two of us. It really was beautiful and I had a hard time finally cutting into it! Overall, it was a really great day and I enjoyed all of the cards that came in the mail and facebook postings. I definitely felt loved!As my birthday is finished, John’s 30th is this weekend! We are getting excited for our trip to Amsterdam and plan to pack tonight and then head out tomorrow morning for a long weekend. We have both been looking forward to this trip and hopefully we have a fun time. We will be sure to update our doings once we’re back next week! Happy February!
