Well, it finally happened. I turned 30!! WOW!! It seems like only yesterday I was a kid and now here I am: a mother of 4, a wife and a thirty-something. I came to terms with it when I looked in the mirror last night and thought, "Man, I look haggard for a twenty-something, but I'm going to look great as a thirty-something." I guess that's a good way of looking at it. People will find out I'm 30 and say, "Well, you look great for your age." So if any of you ever see me, you'd better say that because that's what I'm hanging on to!! Just kidding. You don't have to say that. Even if I hadn't come to terms with it, I couldn't keep it from happening.
We had the family and my BFF Angie and her fam up at the in-law's house for my party. I got a gift card from Aunt Pam, some money from my mom and dad in-law, a digital picture frame from Chad, and a foot soaker/massager from the kids. I so enjoyed having everybody there and feel so lucky to have the friends and family that I have.
