Boot camp + Birthday = ice cream cake for me :)

Monday was my 28th birthday and it could not have been more perfect! I started the day off with boot camp! This week is my 4th week of boot camp. I honestly cannot believe it has been almost 4 weeks. I am honestly feeling better about myself both physically and mentally. For some reason, boot camp is always a dream to me. I cannot even remember what we did Monday. I remember it being hard and where I stood in class but no idea what we did. When I got home, I showered and then layed down with Melonee for about 30 minutes. I just love cuddling with her. Jennifer came to pick up the girls from the weekend and brought me chick-fil-a..my favorite. After having breakfast with my family, I went to work. While at work, Greg walks up with flowers which caught me off guard. I was thinking who in the world would be sending me flowers. I looked and it was a co-worker who I have known for maybe 3 months. She also took me to J. Alexander's (one of my favorites) and got me a purse! TOO MUCH!!! I have to tell you what I ordered at J's. I got the pork tenderloin with orzo and wild rice. Also, we had to get the queso dip. After lunch, my boss told me to go home! I was excited to actually spend some time with my family and Alice. Me, mom, and Alice went to TJMAXX while dad mowed my yard!

When we got home from our shopping adventure, Mandi was preparing dinner for my family and close friends. She is so thoughtful! The menu included a balsamic salad with homemade sour dough croutons, stuffed pork tenderloin, and orzo and wild rice. I loved it even though it was very similar to what I had for lunch. She also got my favorite (Dairy Queen) ice cream cake and yes I had a piece and hope to finish it off tonight. I was very excited that several of my friends were able to come to make my day even more special. I hope to post pictures later.
