My birthday, past and present(s)!!!

Yesterday was my birthday and it got me thinking about birthdays I've had in the past.

This year was nice, my "Grammy" had the boys over to her house so I could spend the day as I pleased, I went shopping. It was great to have the day to myself, that doesn't happen very often. My mom got me a gift card for Fashion Bug, so I got to pick out some clothes, which I really needed. This weekend, Nathan is going to take me out to dinner and to see "Bee Movie" while Dustin stays home with Matthew. This will be fun because Nathan and I don't get much time just the two of us together, this was all Nathan's idea, he claims he's even going to pay!
Two years ago, I think I got my best present ever. The day after my birthday in 2005, I found out I was pregnant with Matthew. (Nathan was a late Christmas present, oddly, I found out I was pregnant with him the day after Christmas in 2002!)
I remember one year, probably my 14th or 15th birthday, when my mom took me and a few friends to the Ft. Wayne mall and we went shopping and ice-skating there. That was fun.
When I turned 8 or 9, I remember Jana got me a New Kids on the Block charm bracelet that I thought was AWESOME! Also, I remember I got a NKOTB sweatshirt that year that I really liked!
I never really had big parties, just a friend or two over to spend the night. Usually it was Chris or Katy. It was always fun though.
Thanks to everyone who's helped make my birthdays over the years great!
