50 Percent Off Priceless

Today is Heather's Birthday. We are married with children, and one on the way... so tonight won't be a rager party to celebrate.

While there won't be a rager, we have a lot to celebrate. As we get older we can celebrate what we have done together, and learned over the years. I think our recent weekend really sums up who she is and as much as this might sound more like a Mother's Day post, she is a mother that is expecting, and its pretty much all we talk about so here we go...

Saturday morning she made her breakfast potatoes (awesome!) and played with Cruz. She let me sleep in, and then we planned our errands and activities for the weekend. Goodwill had their 50% off sale, so had to go look for baby girl clothes. Cruz found a truck he liked, I found a nearly mint condition Dirty Dancing VHS (Heather didn't want it), and Cruz got dirty on the floor pushing trucks around.

Then we picked up Novali (she likes to sleep in), and little man Cruz got a haircut. Then it was off to Kolhs, we like to shop holiday decorations after the holiday. Heather scored a cool halloween table cloth, and yes 50% off. Not to mention costumes we got for Novali, Cruz, and future baby girl for next year this week 50% off as well. We like to shop in advance...

As Novali likes to say, "Heather is crafty", so that afternoon they rolled, baked and frosted some Halloween cookies. Yes it was in November, we have learned to be flexible on Holidays because of when we can get Novali. So past date, but still great. Plus Cruz loves frosting no matter the occasion, belated or not.

Sunday, Heather planned our traditional backyard photo shoot. People always love our cards, and are surprised to learn they are usually taken with my camera propped up on something (cause I can never find my tripod when I need it), and after many outtakes we find just the right pic. I am sure Heather has a 50% off coupon to use, and you all will be getting a great card from us soon. Here is my favorite candid shot of Heather spinning Cruz around between pics.
So Heather is one year older, and her value continues to hold at priceless, no after holiday sale here for sure. Plus not sure what 50 Percent off Priceless would be anyways. We have learned to be thrifty, she is crafty as ever, she is great at mama snuggles, we have learned to just be who we are as we age and I enjoy her each year more and more. Love ya babe, Happy Birthday.
