Happy Birthday Mom!

Yesterday was my mom's birthday, and it has been 2 days of celebration. She is just that special. It all started yesterday (Tuesday) with my mom meeting her friends at Applebees after work. Then, my mom and I were going to meet up with my aunt for happy hour, but the plans fell through. So what did we do? We had our own happy hour on the 3-season porch. It wasn't quite as good as going to happy hour at a restaurant, but it was better than just sitting on the couch. Then it was time for dinner; we went to a new restaurant called Wicked Moose. My parents and I have eating there a few times since they opened, but my sister and brother-in-law haven't been there until now. The food is really yummy, and the prices are very reasonable. They also make their own "moose chips," which are basically deep-fried potato slices with a special seasoning. They are delicious! After dinner, my mom opened her presents, marking the end to her birthday... Or so she thought.

Her birthday continued the next day, today. We met my uncle and my grandparents at Baker's Square for supper. And of course for free pie! My mom and I try to meet my uncle once a month for Pie Rush Wednesday. Last month we also celebrated my uncle's birthday with free pie; this month it's my mom's birthday. Next month will be America's birthday, so maybe Uncle Sam will buy. Wouldn't that be great? Anyways, supper was yummy again tonight, as was the free pie. I love Pie Rush Wednesday.
