Today, my first baby turned 17!! I don't know how this has happened but somehow 17 years have flown by and now we have a wonderful young woman in our home! I can still remember sitting on the couch just holding her for hours - it never got old to look at her and be in complete awe in the incredible blessing that God gave us on January 7, 1993! We went to dinner at JuRin, this awesome restaurant here in town to celebrate. It was the four of us and Amanda's boyfriend Dennis - amazing that we are at that point in our lives too, where most times there are 5 of us around the dinner table or at an event. It's funny because Doug was the new one at our dinner table 25 years ago. :-) The food was delicious and it was very entertaining because they cook right in front of you. They brought out a beautiful dish with dessert and fruit and sang Happy Birthday. She was as embarrased as any other 17 year old would be. :-) We had a great time. I am not going to add this dinner to our food budget for the month because it was a birthday celebration, I will put it under our budget for gifts.
Happy Birthday Amanda! I love you with all of my heart!!
I also wanted to tell you that I went to Walgreens on my way to work today and sure enough, if you buy 4 - 24pk Aquafina water, you will get a $10 RR! My total was $16.24 including tax and I used my $6 RR so OOP was $10.24 and I got a $10 RR back. Yay!! I am going to go to another Walgreens and get some more for the band trip. I never want to clear any shelves!
