Today was Craig's 24th birthday. We were able to sleep in and have a relaxing morning, my Grandpa Stucki made us french toast for breakfast which was so good. (You can't go wrong with Grandpa's french toast they are the best) Craig was in a band and he played the drum's and he buddy Zane was up from St. George so they were able to get together and play for a little bit this morning while I finish cleaning and getting Craig's Birthday Cake made! We went shopping and got Craig some tennis shoes and also a watch for when he starts his CNA program on Monday! We met up with our friends and family for dinner at T.G.I. Friday's at 5:30 and had a great turn out, lots of people came and we really did have a great night. Craig got lots of fun presents. I had decided at Thanksgiving that I was going to get Craig a laptop for his birthday but I didn't want him to have any idea so I started to take half of the tips I earned each day and hide them so that he wouldn't know what I got since I went out and paid for it on the card he would wonder what happened haha, anyways his brother Alan was a lot of help, he was able to get it for me and I was able to keep a secret for a little over 2 months haha! Anyways and then his brother and sister in law gave him a case for it and then his parents got him the mouse.
Alan, Michelle and Ashlee, We were all just waiting for everyone else to get there!

Craig and all his goodies! His sister made this cool present, she got the bottles of soda and she emptied out four of them and she washed them and then she put treats in them, so she put like m&m's, peanuts, sun flower seeds and licorice. I think it is the greatest idea and I am going to have to steal it and use it!
After dinner we had to hurry home so that we could do cake and ice cream also. We were able to just sit back, relax and have a good time visiting with each other.
