So Aly's actual birthday is October 24th, but with all the craziness this fall, this was the first time everyone could get together. I love birthday parties at the Horton House. There is always great food, lots of chatter and definitely lots of laughs. I have to admit I was a tad disappointed with the food selection this year. One of the things I was looking forward to most ended up having onions on it. Gross.

Here is Aly opening gifts.

This is my favorite gift she received. I want to steal them. Haha. Super cute.

This is their dog Sunshine, helping with the gift opening.

I try and capture this picture each year with the cousins.

This one was after she blew out the candles. She had quite a few left.

Look at all those boyfriends! Even though the Vikings lost that day to the Bears, it was still a great afternoon spent with family.

Happy Birthday Aly!

Since it was a Thursday (work-night) and I knew I wouldn't be able to stay awake late enough to get dinner AND a movie in, we decided to split the two events up. We went to dinner at Benihana. Which was fabulous. And even though it was my first time there, it was not my first time at a teppanyaki style restaurant. It's not the most romantic atmosphere, because you are sharing your table with 6 other people and the cook, but it works for us and we had a wonderful time.

This is us at dinner.

We exchanged gifts. I got Wayne a DVD that he had been wanting.

And he surprised me with a pair of shoes that I've been wanting for months. My Raspberry colored Chuck Taylor's.

Needless to say I was super excited and thankful! He had tricked me a few days beforehand and asked me what my shoe size was because his Mom wanted to know. I told him and didn't even put 2 and 2 together. He also wanted to take me to go see a movie that I had been wanting to see, but we agreed to go that Sunday after a family birthday party (post to follow on that soon).

After the family birthday party we headed to our little Buffalo Cinema to see this movie.
