Birthdays!

Well today I turn the big 3-0 and strangely I am totally okay with it. Who would have ever thought?! I guess now that I'm old enough to turn thirty, I realize it's not really old at all. Besides, I am quite comfortable with myself these days, so the number doesn't really matter all that much. And man am I happy I can say that. I really thought I would be bummed when I turned 30, but it's actually quite the opposite! I am really enjoying celebrating a "big" birthday. It kind of gave me permission to make a big deal about it! Love it! And I am feeling quite loved by everyone in my life. I really have some AMAZINGLY wonderful family and friends. God has certainly hooked me up for the first 30 years....I wonder what He has in store for the next 30?!

Other than my birthday, we went to my friend Lisa's son's birthday party last weekend. They had a big sha-bang (I'm allowed to say things like that because I'm in my thirties now) complete with a petting zoo and pony rides. Let me tell you, it was FUN! Garrison loved all the animals and Bryan and I enjoyed seeing all our friends. Here are a couple pics that Lisa took:
I absolutely LOVE this one. Couldn't you just eat him up?!?!
