Linda's 53rd Birthday- Dinner and a Movie with the Family (minus one- Damian is still in Baltimore)






A few years ago we started having "Dinner and a Movie" for birthdays in our family. The birthday person decides what kind of dinner they want (homemade or takeout) and they also pick the movie to watch and we all get together to celebrate! I picked salad for my favorite but Missy said that was too boring so I had to pick my next favorite food which is Italian. So Missy picked up the ingredients for fresh cheese tortellini,she made homemade vodka sauce and hot Italian sausages. It was very good!
For the movie I picked, P.S. I Love You (Hillary Swank and Gerard Butler). It was pretty slow for the guys but Missy and I liked it. After the movie, they sang Happy Birthday and I blew out a candle on my cake. It was white cake with butter cream frosting and Mike picked up some Dreyers Slow Churned Vanilla Ice Cream (gotta watch calories somewhere!). I received some very nice gifts and my day came to an end.
I also got sung to 3 times on my way into work and @ work yesterday. Dad and Mom called and sang in harmony, my friend Sharon sang to me at my desk and then my friend Barb sang to me. I also got calls to work from Phil and Missy, and then on the way home I got a call from Damian. Talk about being the center of attention!
