On August 24th I turned 30 years old...all I can say is it is about time! I feel like I have been 30 for years now, why? I don't know it just does! Here is my most favorite card I got from sugar baby on my birthday. Yes, that is right my son loves me in LEGO! My boys are very obsessed with you tube and watching Weird Al's Music Videos. They love White and Nerdy and Fat! The other day we found the music videos done in LEGO! You would have thought that my boys had died and gone to heaven. They laughed so hard. So there you have it, I am loved in LEGO!
I threw myself a party(the day before my birthday) this year because my husband did such a good job of it last year, I figured I 'd give him a break. We invited a lot of people this year...and it was great! Mary Ann did the decor which I some how didn't get great pictures of (she may have a career in crate paper). Cute Jen bought me cake and Mary Ann(her blog soon to follow) and I planned some games. I was so glad when Debbie and Dale came because she has been literally down in bed all summer with a crushed ankle. So fun to be able to socialize with her in person!
My man and me!
My lovely cake from the wonderful Jen Dolce!
My peeps!!! Mary Ann and Andrea, you two know I love you guys!
One of the few shots of the party....(Kennan, this picture of Jimmy is for you!)
I think we ended up with 45 people and it my little house was crowded but my beautiful yard that my husband takes great care worked out well. Everyone brought treats to share and it seemed like people enjoyed themselves. Thanks to all of you for coming!
Here are my thoughts on being thirty:
Years ago my sister-in-law Lisa, told me how her beloved grandma Laycock told her if she could be any age again she would choose her 30's because she was not too young to feel insecure, her children were here and growing, and everything still worked well (meaning body)! I tucked that conversation away in my mind and knew I would think on it as I turned 30. So, turning 30 is great; I have a beautiful family and a fantastic husband and life! So, I am going to look at my life in that view....this is the best time of my life! Hello 30!!!

Drink in every minute of it. So wish I could have celebrated with you...you are one of a kind, sweet daughter. Looks like a "maaaaavelous" party! XOXOXO
