Birthday dinner was delicious! I forwent (is that a word?) the popcorn shrimp, not because of the popcorn connection, but because I was trying not to go too overboard, which is easy to do at my favorite restaurant.

Case in point: the waiter enticed my folks into a "wine flight." They sampled the 3 wines, along with the help of my sisters, and then ordered a bottle of the one everyone liked best. Catch the catch there? They didn't order off the menu, so we had no idea the cost of the wine. Let's just say it was slightly more pricey (and then some!) than what they would typically order. Both bottles.

This situation was made even more hilarious by the fact that just to keep us on our toes (as though we needed it with the energetic Anna and Lily joining us), Pops pulled the ol' "I forgot my credit card" trick. Good thing I had mine with me! It was definitely the most expensive dinner I've ever bought. Lucky for me, my purchase was only temporary. Mama has already paid me back - I knew they were good for it!

We had a great time - thanks again to my fantastic family for helping me celebrate yet another birthday.
