This Month is Such a Special One!

It's birthday time for us!

I know this post is really late, sorry. Birthdays just aren't as special when you're married...

Our birthdays were very uneventful, but nice. For McKenzie's birthday, we both took the day off and went shopping. She found some nice clothes for work, but Marcus got a killer deal on Aero pants. 3 pair for $15! You gotta love the clearance rack. McKenzie was more excited about that purchase than any of the purchases she made.

We celebrated Marcus' birthday 1 day early, because it was Memorial Day, and McKenzie had the day off, so instead of using a vacation day, we pretended it was the 25th. We woke up after a LONG drive home from Arizona, and went to Sand Hallow. Logan, Heather, Robby, Branae and Kendra all went with us. It was a great time. Marcus was having fun cliff jumping. McKenzie was content with sitting on the rock talking to the girls and watching! We made ourselves lunchables for lunch and stopped at DQ on the way home. That night we ate dinner at Mom & Dad Abbott's house for all the May birthdays. Happy Birthday Branae, Dad, and Shaynie! Dad makes the best enchiladas! If you've never experienced them, you are missing out BIG TIME! We had 2 cakes that night, and enjoyed the company of our family.

On Marcus' actual birthday, he had to work for an hour and a half, then got to do nothing all day. He mostly caught up on much needed sleep. After McKenzie got off, we went over to Mike and Becky's and they fed us dinner and had a cake for Marcus to blow the candles out on. Thanks for the Mexican Salad and for making cakes for both our birthdays Becky! You're the best!! Marcus got a Xbox for his birthday. Robby came and took his away, and McKenzie didn't want to deal with withdrawals, so she gave in and he got a new one.

Our birthdays were quiet, but the best part was the time we got to spend together. Marcus still has another surprise present coming, he just has no idea what it is going to be. Stay tuned for the big surprise!

If you think birthdays go downhill when you get married, wait until you have kids.

Happy birthday both of you! I think it's cool you share your birthday month like Johnny and myself, kinda makes it fun. Can't wait to hear what Marc's other present is!
