    Default so I turned 40 yesterday, and my husband......... :)

    .....my husband did the most amazing thing (s) for me!!!

    First off, this weekend we took the kids to his parents and we took off to a mystery location. San Francisco? San Luis Obispo? Pismo Beach? Nope.... NAPA VALLEY!! Ok, Calistoga to be exact.

    Calistoga is known for it's mineral springs and MUD BATHS..... yes, I said MUD BATHS!

    Guess what we did on my 40th (the 2nd)? Did a couples mud bath, complete with a mineral jacuzzi soak and warm blankets... topped off with a half hour massage! oh yea baby!!

    After that we hit a few of the very best wineries, and then he took me to dinner.

    About midway through dinner, he slides a card under my plate.... and grabbed the camera. I thought that it was odd that he needed the camera for me to open a birthday card...... THEN I SAW WHY!!!

    On Thursday, the 5th of August (like 2 days from now!!!) I will be boarding a plane and spending 6 glorious day with my BFF in Rapid city , SD!!!!!!!!! Total shocker!! He is flying me to see my best friend!!

    He's got all the details worked out - ie: who's gonna watch the kids!

    He ROCKS~!
