Kacie's Birthday

My birthday celebration started a bit early, when Candice, Thai, Josh & Lezlie knocked on our door at 10:30 the night before my birthday. Candice had baked me cupcakes for my birthday! They all sang me Happy Birthday and we ate cupcakes.

Since I don't normally have any classes on Wednesdays, I had my entire birthday off from school! Unfortunately, Nick had to work, but I still had a great day. I started off by meeting a few friends (and Nick) for lunch at a local restaurant called Lennie's. They have great calzones, pizza, etc. After lunch, my friend Lezlie and I went shopping at the mall. Then I decided to take Herky for a walk in the forest near Griffy Lake (see other post). I had to go to a short meeting at the optometry school in the evening, but I got home about the same time as Nick got off work. We went to Kohl's to spend the gift card from Bill and Lisa (thanks!) and Nick got some work clothes too. We ate dinner at Cracker Barrel (it was wonderful!), and then we just relaxed the rest of the evening. Thanks to everyone who sent me emails, Facebook messages, text messages, cards, and called!
