Wednesday morning this little cutie showed up at my house:
We then went with our friends to the Bellagio conservatory to check out their new display. The boys LOVED IT! It is decorated with cute electric trains and bridges all over the place, and of course, gorgeous flowers as well.

All the pictures we took have the kids with their backs to us because they didn't want to look away from the trains. 
Later that evening Steve and I went to Benihana for dinner (for Eugene people, it's a lot like Shojis). Thanks so much to our friends for watching Easton and letting us have a night out! Dinner was super yummy, and it was just nice to spend some time together.
After that we came back and had cake and ice cream with some friends while we watched (fast forwarded through) all the lame group performances (except this one...it's okay to watch it over and over. I do.), only to see David Cook steal the show. How sad.

I always love an excuse to get together for lunch. Someone needs to have a birthday every week! Thanks for celebrating with me! So far 26 feels pretty good. Thanks to all my family and friends for the gifts, the calls, the texts, the cards...everything! I love you all, thanks for making my day so memorable!

What a fun, fun, FUN day for you! Birthday's really are the best and I'm sad I couldn't share it with you (but thanks for the fun on my b-day!) I can't believe you're 26, you don't look a day over 18! Love ya and HAPPY BIRTHDAY!
BTW, love Clair's shirt!
Happy, Happy Birthday!
You make 26 look so good. Your cake looks divine... even if it is not chocolate ;)
Happy birthday!! It sounds like you've had a fun few days. You should stretch it out some more over the holiday weekend. I would!!
Happy Birthday, I'm horrible, I had forgotten. Congrats on 26, I wish that I could remember 26. It seems so long ago.
Looks like you had a blast. Friends are great! Family is better!!!! And life is great.
I'm still in shock over AI. Can't believe that DC beat out DA. How sad.
I've had my own kind of "fun" around here lately. Can you imagine a leaky roof in a furniture store. 4 holes in the showroom and same amount in warehouse. It's been quite the past few days.
Love ya
Happy Birthday!! I forgot that our birthdays are so close together - so which day was your actual birthday?? Mine's Saturday. I can't believe we're 26. I don't feel old by any means, but it's SO far away from when we were just 18 and graduating high school!
Looks like you had a great time!
Ok so PLEASE check your phone voice mail!!!! I didn't forget about you!!!
And I agree with Ilene. You're a hottie 26 year old!!!
Sounds like the perfect birthday, besides being bumbed about Idol's winner. Sorry you're not happy but I am! :) Lots of fun stuff done, surprises, dinner, and friends. SO nice!!!
P.s. LOVE the pink shirt!!! Is it Shade or Downeast? I have to get one. You're a smokin' HOT blonde bombshell in pink! :)
So glad for your fun days celebrating your birthday. That t-shirt idea was the most adorable ever and she is sooo cute. It's hard to believe you are 26 but it's a fun age so enjoy.
Love and miss you!
They have been talking about the 10th anniversary of the Thurston shooting a lot on TV this week and I've been remembering your 16th birthday because of that.
Time flies.

I love that a friend showed up with her cute baby wearing a onesie that says "happy birthday emily" That is too cute! I am so glad that you loved turning 26,I had a hard time with it when I did. I am glad that you had so much fun and that you were around friends that love you and celebrate with you! Happy birthday Mem! Love yoU!
You've had a birthday, SHOUT HOORAY! So very sad I missed the festivities (Claire's shirt is awesome). I forgot how young you are...you make me feel old - only 26! Oh, those were the days. Glad you had a fun day and maybe we need to go to lunch again next week so I can be there!

Happy belated birthday. Glad 26 is treating you right. I am half way through it, it isn't that bad!!! Well, you look great and I am glad to hear you had a great birthday.
Wow looks like a lot of fun! Happy birthday! All I have to say is you look so beautiful in all of these pictures! I love your hair blonde and I think that pink is really your color!
HAPPY BIRTHDAY!!!!!!!!!!! I was watching the news late at night and they did this flash back to the thurston shooting and said it had been 10 years and then I thought, "Holy crap has it been that long? And then- Oh! It's Emily's birthday today!" I love yOU! I'm glad you had a good birthday! By the way, you're looking good! I'm loving the blond hair!
Emily,
You are so much fun. The reason why you are so likeable is because you just express the way everyone else is feeling in such fun ways! You are just the best!
I forgot that you are a May baby too! I get to celebrate my 26th birthday this Thursday. I love birthdays!! Brady finally gets to celebrate his in about two weeks. Well, happy bday.
happy birthday!!! It sounds like you had a lot of fun!!! Too bad we don't live closer. You have such a cute family:)
Yeah - top billing for the onesie :) I'll have to tell Matt that you posted it, he'll love it! And I do too - we have to celebrate every b-day to its fullest :)
Comment #27, a little late, but didn't want you to think I forgot you! Your birthday was so fun, for me too! You're the best and you do deserve a birthday every day!
