Happy Birthday to me!

Yesterday was my 28th birthday, whew I'm getting old. We've been celebrating since our trip last weekend, cause that is the only way to do birthdays, a week (or month) long. I got to spend part of my day with Gwen and Harry Barlow, since Lonna's baby Stella decided she likes my month so much she wanted in on the action. (I did advise Lonna to labor for 17 hours so we could share the same day...she didn't buy into that.) When Lonna and James came to pick their kids up, they brought me these beautiful flowers. What kind of awesome person has a baby and brings me flowers?


I had a nice chat with my mom & dad who sent me a gift card to one of my favorite restaurants. (Thank you, the girls and I had take-out last night!)

And my mother and father-in-law sent this beautiful (and festive) flower arrangement. (Thank you so much, it's brightened my home!)
Lexi was sure to sing me Happy Birthday throughout the day, and asked if she could help me open presents. She was a little bummed to hear you don't get to have a pinata or open packages of ponies when you get old.

Thank you everyone for your phone calls, texts, and facebook posts! Only 2 more years till the big 3-0!
