Today was

my birthday.


I got to do one of my favorite things tonight - go to a movie with Chris. In fact, we went twice - back to back (the first time ever). Can I tell you how fun it is to walk out at the end of a movie, head back to the front counter, buy a second ticket to another feature, and walk right back in all over again.


We started off with Dan In Real Life with Steve Carrell. Loved it. Had to come home and download Let My Love Open The Door and listen to it over and over again.


Round two was American Gangster with Denzel Washington & Russell Crowe. Another really good movie.


It was a really good birthday.

    A very happy birthday to you Ali!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!So cool to go see 2 movies back to back, with 3 kids and very few date nights, we haven't done that in a loooong time! Hey, BTW, Barack Obama is in a house down the road for a private fundraiser tonight. I thought of you when you met him:)

    I forgot to say ... I finally got your book on Friday and I've been devouring it! Thanks for sharing your life and art wisdom in this book. I think if I only had one scrap book in my collection I would choose this to be the one. Thanks! Kim

    Happy Belated Birthday girl...I wish you all the happiness in the world and I want you to know that you are an incredible inspiration to us scrappers and your book has given me a new prespective of why I scrap. Thank you from the bottom of my heart. Oh, and Simon looked so cute all dressed up and your house looked beautiful lite up... Have a great week.
