On to my birthday...
I love having my birthday during the school year. I mean, let's just come out and say it....who doesn't like to get gifts? I feel bad for you teachers who have summer birthdays, because you are missing out!
My morning started out with my awesome hubby running out and getting me breakfast and a mean bean. What's a mean bean, you say? Are you sure you want to know? Because, if I tell you, and you have one, then you cannot come back complaining about how you are hopelessly addicted to them. I swear...it's a problem.

This is a mean bean. And yes, it is tasty.

So I had breakfast and a mean bean...pretty much the best way to start out the day. Then my BFF and team member Laura brought me this basket of goodies.

Let me break this down for you: $15 Starbucks giftcard, box of Hazelnut k-cups, easy to care for classroom plant, and a bottle of Flip Flop Riesling.

Yes, she knows me well....very well. That is why she is my BFF. And in case you were wondering, I don't have a Keurig....yet. But it is on my birthday wishlist so...... :)

This is the card she got me.

Hehe...love her.
Then I had a student bring in a pound cake for me and some brownies for my littles. All my students got together and got me a School Box giftcard! This girl can't wait to go shopping!

My hubby and I went to Buca di Beppo for dinner....yummy!!! We were going to go see Wanderlust after dinner, but got a flat on the way. In our brand new car. That has less than 3,000 miles on it. Bummer.

Overall, an awesome day....and my real birthday isn't even until tomorrow!
Off to enjoy a certain beverage birthday gift.... :)
