February was a fun month for me, because I had Valentine's Day and my birthday to celebrate. And Valentine's Day was the day before our 6-month anniversary, so we did a little overnight trip to Wendover to cover both occasions. I know Wendover might sound like a weird place to spend a romantic holiday, but it was actually really great! We were late to the Kansas concert we had tickets for, but at lease we were there in time for Carry On My Wayward Son :) Then we went back to our hotel...our room there was so nice! I didn't even know they had rooms that nice in Wendover.... I was a little shocked. We had a suite with a big jacuzzi in the room and plasma TV, it was awesome. We had dinner at the hotel and did some gambling (too bad neither of us did too well at the tables). The next morning we had brunch at the buffet before driving home. Other than the service being TERRIBLE (which we expected, hard to find good people to work in Wendover I would guess), everything was really nice. Great hotel, decent food, fun cheap blackjack tables - that spells romance! Plus I got some really pretty roses from my hubby :)
My birthday was so much fun, it was like a two week long celebration. The Sunday before we had cake and ice cream at my Aunt Brentz and Uncle Paul's with my grandparents and cousins, and the day after that Steve and I went out for a birthday lunch with my grandparents and Brentz. Then on my birthday Steve was so sweet! First he went and got me my favorite breakfast (biscuits and gravy) while I was getting ready for work. Then that night he picked up takeout from Olive Garden and we watched American Idol and a pirated copy of Twilight - what a perfect night! He even baked me brownies and put candles in them and sang to me. It was the best birthday to get to relax and hang out with my favorite person. And for my present, he got me tickets to Rascal 
Flatts the next night, which was a great concert! Then that weekend my mom came in town, and just having her come was a great present, but she really spoiled me by taking me birthday shopping and taking Steve and I out to Cheesecake Factory for dinner. Then the next week my girlfriends took me out to dinner at Outback Steakhouse for a joint birthday celebration for me and my friend Torrey. I love spending time with all my girlfriends, it was so fun! And then that weekend (yes, it's still going) we celebrated at Steve's parents house with dinner and cake and presents, which was so nice of them! So thank you so much to everyone for making my birthday so wonderful... I love you all! It was so great it even took my mind off of how old I'm getting! ;)
