30

So I turned 30 yesterday. It was a very unmomentous kind of day. Other than now when people ask me how old I am I have to say 30 everything seems to feel the same. I do have to say that saying you are 30 does seem very adult. No more I'm in my 20's, no more being a "young mother." Now I guess I am home free until I get to 40, now that seems older. Like if I haven't gotten it together by the time I am 40, it may never happen. The scary thing is that is only 10 years away. Ask me 10 years ago and 10 years seems like forever, ask me now and 10 years seems very short. To think that in 10 years I will have 2 teenagers? Totally weird to even look at my babies and realize that. Well the next decade will be filled with alot of changes so I guess I better start to prepare now.

Happy Birthday!

HAPPY BIRTHDAY, MY LOVE!!

Happy Birthday to the man I love. I hope that your day is special. Just a few special things about you!

1. Only your humor can get me in stitches at the most innocuous thing.
2. Your smile lights up a room.
3. Your quiet strength and caring spirit makes you more attractive to me every day.
4. Your children adore you and your ability to be a human jungle gym is amazing.
5. Only you can wear a blanket cape and make it look good!
6. Who else can I trust to be my human GPS within 6 minutes of arriving in a new place?
7. You look good in ACU's, when you leave for work I wonder, "Who is getting their butt kicked today, Hooah!?"
8. Your intelligent and the best problem solver I know.
9. You care about me and even let me be a little ridiculously crazy at times (i.e. Grace's school, the king bed, need I go on?)
10. You love me and our kids and we love you, we are a family and I wouldn't have it any other way, and that in my opinion is pretty special!

I love you my dear and I think you are an amazing man. I am so glad that we are taking this amazing journey together. I look forward to all that the next 20 years hold and can't wait to open our bed and breakfast. I love you with my whole heart!

Your Wife

Poker

My family and I celebrated my brother's 24th birthday on Friday. We played some Texas Hold'em poker. I have to say I am a terrible poker player. I never know if I have anything, and can't seem to keep up with the bets. I did however have a lot of fun playing. I have to say there is something really liberating when you push in all your chips and say "All In" even if you have no idea if you have anything worth saying that.
