30

Well, I guess I finally made it.  Last week, I turned 30.  Crazy, huh?  I'm going to miss my 20's, but I look forward to what this decade has in store for me!  And since mostly all of my friends are actually older than me, I feel like I'm catching up by joining the realm of 30.  I know, silly...but true.  With the exception of being considered "old," I've been looking forward to being 30 for a couple years now.  I did have a slight bit of depression hit on my birthday.  Not only am I now 30, but I am also almost done being pregnant with my last baby and I just feel like I'm entering a whole new chapter of life. But honestly, being 30 feels no different than 29--I know, shocking!

My fabulous hubby threw me a surprise party the night before my birthday.  He invited a bunch of our friends and neighbors over as well as his parents.  My mom, grandma, and aunt were all in town for a long weekend to go to a Genealogy Reunion, so they played a big role in the decorations and set up--with a lot of help from three little girls, I understand.  I became slightly suspicious when my mom, grandma, aunt, and Sami all left the Chinese restaurant in a hurry and Jeremy seemed to be seriously dragging his feet to get home.  But I didn't expect to be seeing so many people when I go home!  A cake with family was about all I was thinking. 

Of course, no one told me my hair was an absolute mess the whole time...

The crown was my mom's doing, but my girls ate it up and refused to let me take it off the entire evening.  Silly girls.  Thanks, Mom! 

Thanks, Hun, for a fun little party!  Now, I get the pleasure of spending six years planning your 40th...  :)
