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.

    Happy Birthday, Ali! Wishing you all the best this next year!
    I love Pete Townshend and that is one of my favorite songs by him as a solo artist!

    Happy belated birthday!!! I hope you have a great year. I found this yesterday and thought of you: "Search for peace, and work to maintain it" 1 Peter 3:11b. So, here's to another year full of peace!

    Happy belated birthday, Ali! I love the movies too. It's always a traditional "date night" for my husband and me when we are kidless. Glad you had a good time!

    Happy Birthday Ali. I had to chuckle at you because I would have snuck into the second movie! Best wishes to you.

    Happy Birthday!!! I absolutely love going to the movies and before we had our babies 9 years ago we'd go all the time and see two or three a weekend.... Our kids have the day off school today and we are.... heading to the movies with the kids!!! We go at least once a month with them (assuming there is something ok for them to watch) and have as much fun going with them as we did alone! Happy Happy to you....
