Birthday/Easter weekend

Two of my favorite holidays were this weekend...and we had a great time celebrating both, despite being hundreds of miles away from friends and family. 

My birthday celebration started on Friday since Cory had to work on Saturday!

I woke up to this...

Then we went on a trail at a park in North Irving...

Then on Saturday (my actual birthday), Cory had to work until 4 but we celebrated after...

This cake was no where near as good as a Publix cake. I miss Publix!!!!!!!!

Steak and Lobster dinner at Outback :) So yummy!

Then he surprised me with going to see the "sunset" at White Rock Lake. The sky was cloudy unfortunately but it was still beautiful! Its the closest we can get to sunset at the beach :)

We ate the cake while at the park!

I just really liked the way this tree looked. I wish I had my real camera!

Once again, I wish I had my real camera so that this was better quality..but I loved that there was a sailboat in front of the skyline. It kind of felt like Tampa or somewhere in Florida for a minute :)

He then surprised me and took me to the top of the parking garage at Methodist Hospital to see the skyline! It was gorgeous!

The last part of my present is that we're going to a Rangers game sometime this week :)

We then got to celebrate our Risen Savior this morning at First Baptist Irving! It was a great service. I love getting to celebrate the fact that my God conquered death and is ALIVE! I'm so thankful that our God is still living, active in our lives, and loves us. I'm thankful that He was willing to come and die for MY (and your) sins. I'm so undeserving, but thats how much He loves us. What an amazing Savior! :)

And I leave you with this picture of our Riley girl :) She was so mad at us for making her get a bath!
