My 30th Birthday!

This year I turned 30. My birthday was on Saturday, January 14th. To be honest it was a pretty lousy birthday weekend.  We had an adoption situation come up on Friday, January 13th that didn't end up working out.  Matt was on his first graveyards for work, so he slept during the day. I hung out with the horses for about 4 hours and was able to see Matt for an hour while we went to dinner at La Frontera. Spent the rest of evening by myself. 

Since my birthday weekend was pretty lousy, I wanted the next weekend while Matt was off work to be a lot better. I planned to get a Pedicure with my best friend, Kristin, on Thursday night and then we would go to dinner at Texas Roadhouse with our families. Friday - I wanted to go to Gorgoza Park to go sledding. Saturday - We would spend the evening with Kristin and David for Kristin's 30 birthday. 

Well nothing went as planned, but it still was an enjoyable weekend for the most part. 

Thursday -

Kristin and I went to get our Pedicure like planned, but Matt had other plans for dinner. He threw me a surprise party...Kind of, because I ended up suspecting something before hand. Some of ours friends came over to surprise me, Elswoods, Lundgrens, McIlravys, Mellons, and Sloans(my sister).

Matt even made me my kind of cake....A beautiful fruit edible arrangement! It was the best cake ever! It was pretty funny though that Robbie (5 years old) got upset that we didn't even have cupcakes, because this was a birthday party and you are suppose to have some kind of cake. We told her the next time we saw her we would have a cupcake for her.

Mine are the blue toes and Kristin's are the pinkish toes.
No one has really seen them, because it really isn't flip-flop weather.

My thanks to Matt and nice big KISS! Love him so much!

A bunch of fruit cakes in this picture...3 of them.

Very Edible. I got to take the first bit. 

Friday -

I ended up sick, so we didn't go tubing at Gorgoza Park, but we did go see Mission Impossible: Ghose Protocol.

Saturday - 

It decided to rain and snow, so David and Kristin had their basement flood. So no dinner with them, but we ended up going out with Matt's parents to Macaroni Grill anyway.

Matt and I got to sit next to the Fireplace. Perfect!

So the birthday weekend after my real birthday weekend was great. 

I also got a couple cards I thought were pretty funny. 

Lundgren's Gave me this Card:

Chelsey and Hans sent me this one:

My mom also gave me money for horse back riding gloves. I ended up having some money left over, so I also got some ear muffs. These both have saved my life while horse back riding in the lovely winter weather. 

Matt gave me tickets to see Zorro at Hale Center Theater on March 19th.

 I am ecstatic to go see this play!

OFF TO A NEW YEAR!
