Today was a good day

Thanks to my sweet family, a great bunch of friends and then all the awesome extended family, today's 37th bday was an absolute blast. It started last Friday with lunch in downtown Woodstock with a great group of girls and also celebrating Lorin's bday. (Shhhh, she's quite a bit older, but who cares!?!)

Last night we were supposed to have the boys polar express/Xmas party with their buddies but about an hour after everyone got there, Reed vomited big time. He was so sad to make everyone go home! Thankfully, Julie took Nolan to her house so he could hang with Gracen and Bennett and Reed had todd and I to himself. I really don't think he minded the outcome because he got so much attention as it was all about him and what he wanted to do. We still watched the Polar Express movie, just with 8 less kids around. He made a sweet video that I sent to all the moms where he said "hi everyone, I'm feeling much better and I think we need to do the sleepover another time!"  It was too cute!

A couple of the moms sent pics of their kids drinking the hot cocoa I sent home with them and sweetly wished Reed a speedy recovery. (Spoiler alert...he was fine after he got it all out!)

The elves left him a nice message hoping he feels better soon, and no, they are not trying to hang themselves. They were making it possible to write on the chalkboard with their tiny elf hands. Duh!

Reed wrote them a message at the bottom of their note we didn't take a picture of. It said "I'm feeling much better". Love that kid!

Then today for my bday, I was served an awesome bday breakfast and Polly chewed on my foot. 

Then, we went to Wolf Mountain Vineyards with 3 other couples, drank some amazing wine, ate a ton of the best food ever and got to spend some time with Bogie and check out her tiny baby bump. We sure do love that vineyard and getting to see Linds and Stephen. Thanks for an awesome brunch!

Lastly, I was super spoiled at my mom's house with everyone for dinner. It was the best ending to the best day of 2014.
