My Birthday Celebration

Yesterday for my Birthday we tried hard to think of something fun to do to celebrate. The weather was so nice for several days earlier in the week and then the weekend came with some colder rainy weather. To bad we couldn't have one of those nice days to go outside and do something fun. We did think of the indoor swimming pool in Tunica, MS. We have heard about it and thought about going a couple times and it seemed like the perfect thing to do yesterday to celebrate.

They have this great kids area with some fun things to do. It was perfect for Lucy and Garrett loved to splash play as well. We really enjoyed it! The water was nice and warm, thanks to a heated swimming pool.
Lucy was so funny about running through this and under things that would spray water on her. She would cover her face because she didn't want to get water in her eyes. We did run through it a couple of times together.

There was also a big swimming pool where you could swim laps or they had a basketball hoop and ball. Garrett really enjoyed hanging out in his floaty. He loved to lean over and splash in the water. I can tell we are going to have a lot of fun swimming this summer!

There were some fun diving boards and platforms. JJ went off the diving board and then jumped off the 2 lower platforms. He is brave! I didn't really have any interest in jumping off anything that high. He took a second to look down and think before jumping off the middle platform jump. A kid in the pool yelled " Do it!" and then Lucy yelled "do it!" . It was cute that she copied that kid.

For Dinner we decided to go out to eat at Logan's Roadhouse, we had a coupon and decided it would be a good time to use it. Dinner was disappointing and I ended up with mine in a to- go box and had it for lunch today. There wasn't really anything we could have done to make it better and so that is fine. We will not be a returning customer there.

Even if dinner was a disappointment, this cake was not! JJ and I made this ice cream cake together and it was so yummy!

We put all 27 candles on the cake!

I blew them all out!

Yummy piece of cake, we used double chocolate oreos and they were delicious.

This is just kind of a random picture from this morning before church, we all happened to match in our church outfits this morning.

Thank you for all my friends and family who made my birthday a special day. Thank you to all the nice cards I got from people in the mail, friends who stopped by to wish me a happy birthday and anyone who took time to think of me. I especially want to thank JJ who really put a lot of effort into making my day special. He did a wonderful job picking out and even surprising me with a nice gift this year! Way to go JJ! It was nice to have my Birthday land on a Saturday because we were able to spend a great day together as a family!
