Jon really out did himself this year for my birthday. He arranged for us to go out on my actual birthday, which was a Wednesday. Dates in the middle of the week are unheard of. He didn't tell me until Tuesday night about 11:30pm. I am not a big surprise person and was a little worried about leaving his parents with the utter chaos of a weeknight, but I was excited. We left the house about 4pm and went to eat at Texas Roadhouse, one of our favorites. I love their salads, bread, and they have delicious ribs. Then we went to see the Broadway Lion King at ASU Gammage Theater. Jon had bought us balcony tickets which sounded cool, until we actually got to our seats. We were WAY up high. You literally look straight down onto the stage. STRAIGHT DOWN!! Looking over a cliff down, and I am not kidding. The picture I tried to take did not turn out because it was so high and my camera stinks, so it just looked like a black hole. I seriously didn't think I was going to make it through the whole play so we upgraded our seats to the Grand View, which is actually like a normal balcony seat, a gradual decent, not straight down. The play was really cool and neither of us had ever been to anything like that. When we got home the kids were all in bed, the house was all cleaned up, and Jon had bought some little jewelry boxes for the kids to paint for me. Jon's parents gave me all kinds of make up and scrapbooking stuff. I felt extremely spoiled! It was a great birthday!
