Homemade chicken soup and mr/mrs birthday

Today has been quite amazing, if i do say so myself. I'm currently sitting on the love seat, curled up in the handmade quilt grandma made us for a wedding gift. I am so proud of myself, you guys. Wanna know why? I did the dishes first thing this morning (that's really awesome). I cleaned the kitchen and living/dining room. and we're in the process of laundry. Zac helped a whole bunch, of course! annnd. There's one more thing i'm really excited about:
I am making my first ever crock pot soup!
chicken, chicken broth, water, pepper, parsley, basil, garlic powder, garlic pepper, carrots, potatoes, and onion. noodles will be added in a bit. :] we have to wait another...5 or 6 hours, but I am beyond excited! The kitchen smells so good right now. :] I really hope my cooking is okay...i took some liberty with the instructions online...really a 1/4 cup of parsley?! The garlic powder and garlic pepper i added on my own (to offset the insane amount of parsley). om nom nom I like cooking every once in a while.
I also have some other exciting news!
Tomorrow (the 17th) is my birthday!
And then on Thursday (the 19th) is Zac's birthday!
We're gonna have a party hopefully on Wednesday night. :] Nothing too outrageous or anything...but we're pumped to share the night together with cake/Oreo pie and small gifts. We have yet to use our two $25 gift cards to Walmart, perfect for birthday celebrations!
Every year, Zac and I will celebrate our birthdays together on the 18th of January.
How's that for a flippin sweet family tradition?!

Well I'm off to get some hw done for tomorrow.
:]
