Spoiled

I'm back! We had a great trip to Scottsdale, and now we're back at home just in time for tomorrow....my birthday! In my family, birthdays are a big deal. They really turn into birthweeks. And this year, my birthweek rocked.

I have been seriously spoiled this year! I told y'all about getting my iphone from my parents, which is the best gift ever. I am absolutely addicted to it. Well, Doug decided to Apple-me-out and get me an IPAD2!!! I couldn't believe it. The original plan was to get a netbook because my computer is ancient and freezes all the time. I usually just use the internet (to read all of y'all's lovely blogs :) so we figured this would be a good purchase and relatively cheap. We were at Best Buy a couple weeks ago looking at them, and Doug says to me, "would you rather just get an ipad?" Like he didn't already know my answer!

So the next day (Sunday....the ipad 2 came out on Friday), we (obliviously) head to the Apple store thinking we would be proud new owners that afternoon. Little did we know, it had come out 2 days ago, had completely sold out, and there would be high demand and lines for weeks. So we ended up ordering it online and it will be here April 22nd...I'm hoping for an earlier delivery!

After we got back last night, Doug's parents also gave me an amazing birthday gift! My MIL has mad sewing skills and made me a garment bag that is adorable!!! I was so excited because I had tried to register for some but couldn't find them anywhere. Plus, this one is pink polka-dot so it's way cuter than anything I could have found. I wish I had taken a picture to post of it!

The in-laws also got me the keyboard for the ipad!! I just about squealed. Actually, I think I may have. And, my sweet BIL, Markus, baked us some delicious cookies to go!

Tomorrow, my Mamaw and Pawpaw are coming to eat lunch with me at work and my parents are taking us out to dinner! That's what I love most about birthdays....spending time with your family. Oh, and cake. Lots and lots of cake.
