I celebrated my 33rd birthday while we were at my mom's house. It was nice to spend my birthday with more than just my little family. Mom's always seem to have a knack for making birthdays special. My mom's birthday was the previous week so she kept up her birthday decorations for me. Mom, Heather, Joseph and I all went to the temple together. It was amazing being in the temple with my family. It was a wonderful experience.
For my birthday, Joseph gave me a new dress that I wanted. It was hanging up in the kitchen after I showered for the day so I quickly changed clothes. I love my new dress.

For my birthday dinner I requested spinach burgers. This is a recipe that I recently found and my family LOVES them. I wanted my mom to try them, but I knew she probably wouldn't have the chance if I didn't request them for my birthday so that is what I did. They were so yummy and my mom liked them too. I also had my traditional chocolate truffle cake. It was heavenly. I told my mom I didn't need to take a piece home with me since we returned the Russellville the next day, but by the time dinner rolled around the following day I was wishing I had brought a piece with me. The good news is that my birthday will roll around next year and I'll have another piece then!

I felt very loved and special on my birthday and I was glad I could spend it with my mom and Heather. I hadn't had a birthday at home with my mom since I was a senior in high school...which was a long time ago... Joseph enjoys reminding me that I'm getting old.

adorable dress!!
You are so beautiful! I love your dress (where did you get it?--seriously)! And I'm glad you had a great birthday. Spinach burgers sound kind of... good. Birthdays at home are the best birthdays--Moms can't be beat for making us feel special:)
