i am 30!

despite wasting my whole 29th year worrying about turning 30

it happened anyway..

but it was a good day

the kids gave me their cards and presents

noah made me a rocket card

 olive gave me a litlte card and wrote in it herself

 i love olive looking at me

 hazel made me this ring and i wore it most of the day

 michael made me a delicious omelet, hash browns and sausage

with hot chocolate, of course

and a friend dropped by jamba juice and a note on the porch which was super sweet

 we walked the kids to school

then we went to target and grabbed cafe rio for lunch

 i loved drinking out of the tumbler michael got me

"kittens get thirsty, too"

michael did so well in the gift department this year

before i left for my sister's house he gave me a new purse with this tumbler in it,

the pinkerton cd, sees chocolates, a watch, new lipstick, a dress i'd been wanting and the plane ticker 

 after we got olive from kindergarten, we stopped for mini-cupcakes

 before michael dropped me off for a spa day

i got a mani, pedi, and massage

it was so nice

and it was at a really nice place called two rivers

 after that, we got home and i saw michael had decorated 

and that my friends had blown up 30 balloons

and put 30 super sweet and thoughtful notes in them

plus, a few friends brought gifts over

it was the sweetest

then we went to dinner at grimaldi's for my fave pizza

 it was delicious, like always

 didn't michael do the best job decorating? 

we invited a bunch of our friends over to eat cake with us

michael got me my favorite dairy queen ice cream cake

and my friend courtney brought a bundt cake over

so we bought one more cake so there would be enough for everyone to have some

 everyone sang to me

 i blew all the candles out on the first try

 some pics of friends

it was so fun

maybe the best birthday ever

i talked to two of my brothers and one of my sisters, and my in-laws on the phone

heard from lots of friends

it was a really great day

and i'm excited about my thirties!!!
