Another year older...

and wiser, too! Happy Birthday to me! Yes, I am now closer to 30 than 20, a sad reality. I am so happy and don't mind another birthday. And a great day it was, thanks to several people!

Last birthday I was pregnant and about to find out if the baby was a boy or girl. Now look at us! We love each other so much! A year has made a big difference in our family.
and Sara and Jacob brought us a birthday lunch, that was so very yummy, WITH dessert! Of course! and this is even better than it looks. So MOIST! and the frosting and filling were delicious too. It was a fun time for all!

And Jason took me to the Melting Pot for a lovely dinner. We'd never been there and enjoyed our two hours of uninterrupted conversation, a rarity for us! and the food was so great, dessert the best, of course!
We got home, and Sara had watched Jada at her house...and Jason was driving to ours. What is going on? We pulled into the garage and saw her car, weird. Oh well, Jada must have needed to go to bed in her crib - fine. So I walk in and am looking for Sara, it's really quiet...then all of a sudden....SURPRISE!!!! There was a party waiting. What a fun way to end my big day. We had pie and enjoyed some great conversation with our friends and fam. Thanks to all who helped pull that off!

Back row: Chrissy, Lakai, Loni, Me, Sara (and baby girl) and Jacob
Front row: Russ, Ace, Jason, John, Scott, Grant and Matias - 4 baby boys and Jada was asleep!
and thanks a ton to the best babysitter! what would I do without you!? Surprises all around!

It was a fun day...so glad the birthday girl liked it too.
You've got to get a video of Jada moving around...she had such a blast in the jungle of toys at my house.
