Wednesday was my birthday. Wednesdays are always hectic, since Julie is in charge of the preschool at church and that's the day I use to do updates and preventive maintenance on the computers in the church office and tutoring lab. But we decided to splurge and go out for dinner before church, and it was a really nice time.

Julie and the boys arrived after I did, and I was already seated at our table. They came in carrying three huge bags -- I hadn't been expecting presents, at least not right then. Ethan gave me a very nice cap. It's hard for me to describe, so I'll just have to post a picture. Seth gave me a 1L blue water bottle with a screw-on lid. It's made of the same kind of plastic that goes into bulletproof windows, so it should be pretty durable. Julie gave me a set of Crank Brothers egg beater pedals, Answer Impact cycling shoes, and $500 to go toward the purchase of a new bicycle! Wow! I was so totally overwhelmed with her thoughtfulness.

She says that the celebration isn't over yet, and that she has a date night planned for us tonight... hmmm...
