Mom's 42nd birthday

Ok, now I am mad because I had most of this post done and stupid Opera on my iphone messed it up! I said bye bye to that app. I am so tired of it not keeping windows open!!! Grr argh!

Anyways, the eve of my mom's birthday, my sister wanted to surprise my mom with a pretty $50 cake and balloons. So I met up with her and we TRIED to sneak into her driveway. Of course she was a turd and was in the living room so she was able to peek and saw us coming down her driveway. We were hoping that if we turned off the headlights, then she wouldn't have seen us. Oh well. She was still surprised to see us considering earlier that day Amanda told her she was sick. She wanted my mom to think she wasn't coming. I had actually went over there earlier that day to eat my mom's yummy chili dinner. Anyways, check out the video that I recorded of her reaction to the cake. She wasn't surprised at my gift which I didn't bother recording since she knew she was getting (bluetooth headset for her phone). She was surprised so we met our goal thankfully. I had to go home to sleep for work and Amanda stayed there and spent the night.

After getting off work the next day at 5:30, I rushed back to Shelbyville to meet her, my sister, brother and stepdad at Hardee's to eat dibner. After that us girls went to bingo. It was Amanda's first time at bingo. They carded us, because we looked young I guess. I just know we look at least 18....I am 22 for goodness sake! Well, we got there early enough to get our favorite spot in the first non-smoking room by the food stand. None of us won anything, but we still had lots of fun. We picked on each other. My mom likes to point out a lot that I look more like my dad instead of her. She thinks it is funny. I mostly picked on my sister, because she is easy to pick on. I love how they gave a shout out to my mom for her birthday. When they said her name, we "woo hooed" and pointed at her. I am still not sure if we embarrassed her or not. I just think she deserves attention, that's all. But yeah, afterwards we ran to the parking lot in the pouring rain and wind. My mom was telling me to hurry up and get to my car, but I always make sure to hug or kiss my loved one since you never know when you will see them again. It was a fun night.

This is one of the memories I had to tell because I want to remember it later. I know there were other memories that I have forgotten to record on here.....but my memory sucks and stuff. I will try to remember to record more later!

Happy birthday to my beautiful and wonderful mom! Love you always!!!!
