My birthday was on the 7th. :) It didn't start out so great... fasting (which usually isn't a bad thing, but I was just sad that I don't get birthday breakfast, which was always a big deal in my family), Blake lost his keys at church so we had to walk home and back, and the sunbeams were crazy as usual. But after all of that we went over to my parent's house, and they made me spaghetti with mizithra. So yummy. And of course my mom made my favorite: homemade oreo cheesecake! And here's the goods...
Blake gave me nice rechargeable batteries and a charger for my flash, a program that lets me see thumbnails of RAW files (sooooo nice), and a monitor calibrator (so that my pictures will print true). Plus he finally set up the old tv that his family gave to us. It isn't connected to any channels, but now we can use our ClearPlay DVD player!
My parents gave me some really cute clothes and jewelry, plus lots of Red Vines, and a tripod (which we'll have to exchange because it only holds 1 lb, lol, not nearly enough for my camera).
The in-laws gave me a new pair of SkullCandy earbuds. My old ones had stopped working on one side. I love these headphones so much. They're great.
So basically it was an awesome birthday :)
Then a week later we had Valentine's Day. Again we had the crazy kids, but it wasn't the worst it's been, lol. After church there was a Grubbs family dinner, and after that we went home for sparkling apple-grape drink by candlelight. Blake got me a beautiful orchid. It has a white background covered with purple speckles. It's pretty :) It was the best Valentine's Day ever!
