New Toy!

I hit the big 3-2 recently, but I'm still celebrating- I figure I get the whole month of April. Partially this year because my birthday fell on Holy Saturday which meant that a good portion of my actual birthday was spent at church. I went out with a couple of friends for dinner on Friday night and then two of us went for pedicures and then out for a little wine- well, I had a little wine and she watched (she's pregnant). Saturday I met my parents for brunch- where I got carded- so the celebration continued:) And of course, the best part about being on Facebook is that you get tons of birthday messages from friends and family- and those people who are just your "facebook friends". On Sunday, I celebrated with the whole family- Easter dinner was specially made to be completely gluten-free including gluten-free birthday cake!

And then of course, I got my gifts. My parents gave me a Barnes and Noble Nook!!! And under my mom's suggestion my brother got me a Barnes and Noble gift card so I could buy a few books to read on my new Nook. I LOVE my Nook!!! I love having a book with me to read any time and it gets difficult with the size of some of the books that I read because they don't fit in my purse very well. This is the perfect size to go in the purse at all times. Plus, I always have another book waiting for me to read it when I finish the one I'm currently reading. And to top it all off, they have all of the Google ebooks available for free so I have been able to download a whole bunch of the classics that I have on my list of books that I want to read. So, now for free I am almost finished with Northanger Abbey which will complete my journey through the Jane Austen novels. This has got to be the best birthday gift I have gotten in years!!!
