Today, we went to Buca di Beppo in Utica, MI for my birthday lunch with my family. We were able to get the “Pope Room” and if you haven’t been to Buca let me explain what that is. Basically it is a large room that is decorated with pictures of different Popes and has a bust of Pope John Paul II in the center of the table on a lazy susan. You have to have a large party to be in there (it holds up to 17), but it is a lot of fun. The food was good and so was the time spent with my family.

This past Friday, Kimmy and I went to Red Robin, so I could get my free hamburger for my birthday. And then on Saturday we had someone come over and we both got hour long massages each for our Valentine’s Day gift to each other. It was nice and relaxing especially since Kimmy’s parents had the kids.

Tomorrow, for my birthday I am taking the day off of work and we are going to spend the afternoon together, since the kids will be at school. We are going to go to the gym, BD’s Mogolian Barbecue, and then to go see the “Bucket List”. I am just looking forward to sleeping in and spending a day with my beautiful wife.
