Loving the Celebrations

February and March in the Rinabarger house calls for a lot of celebration. Today is Steve's 29th birthday and being as indecisive as I am (moreso than ever with the pregnancy), I had the toughest time deciding on what to get him. Saturday I had my first shower (more on that soon) and that night we got all dolled up and enjoyed a fabulous dinner at Barolo (Ahhhh-Mazing!  make your reservation now) for our anniversary so it was time for me to get creative for his special day. Thanks to my dear friend Jenny (whose husband did this for her birthday), I was given the perfect plan - order pizza from a famous Chicago restaurant. I mean how many times do you honestly get to eat a meal that has been sent via overnight FedEx? Rare...right? So, I ordered pizza on Friday from Giodano's and it was delivered today. Unfortunately, I didn't take a photo of the meal because we were too busy savoring each bite, but to see the contents of the box below, click here. Definitely one of the best pizza's I've ever had.

The second part of his gift was four tickets to the Seattle Thunderbirds game (tonight) for birthday boy, his brother and two of his buddies. So, before they left, they enjoyed a few birthday shots from the shotski.

I've been a bit of a "nester" with the nursery lately, which means every night after work I've had Steve working on projects. Therefore, a night out with the boys was the perfect treat for him. Steve - I hope you had a blast tonight - I Love You. My night was spent catching up on Ellen, Oprah and One Born Every Minute (wowza!)

I had an amazing B-day! Thank you for all the thought and love that you put into celebrating my last b-day of my twenties and last b-day before I dedicate every day to our children (and you- as always)!
