wow 30! seriously?

so turning 30…hmmm…. not such a big deal i guess. i think it is more that you are closer to 40 and that is what sounds scary! i always thought growing up that people should grow old gracefully, you know don’t sweat the small stuff. and as i get older i seem to worry more and more bout the small stuff and I'm thinkin that growin old is for the birds:)

 

but let me tell you if we have to get older than there is no better way to do it than celebrating life with the people you love! old friends, new friends and family. this weekend was cram packed! breakfast with the family for june birthday celebrations. londy, me, darcy and darlene. we had yummy waffles, fresh peaches, razzles and strawberries. quite possibly the thickest yummiest bacon one ever laid eyes on and all on china with crystal! grammie would have been proud! there was dinner at the white chocolate grill, which i had forgotten how much i loved! i got to spend time with two of my oldest and dearest friends hailey and lindsey, along with their cute hubbys and with the standard foursome of apes and dustin and us. we laughed and ate and took a bunch of pictures. every time we are together we pick right back up where we left off and truly to me that is what a good friend is. someone you can not see in months or even years and still jump right back in! oh how we need to do that more! if only we lived a little closer:(

apes, me, linds, baby tanner and hailey girl

we’ve been friends through a lot!

we had such a fun time at the fashion party at a rockin boutique in scottsdale with the amazing girls i work with and sushi catered in by kona grill. i got hooked up with some hot dresses and you can’t beat good company and great food!

leave it to me to crawl up on the hood of a strangers rental car! we laughed our holy guts out. jame told me it was her car. had me ready to crawl on it when the rightful owners walked up and said it was a rental and to climb aboard.  there were lots of pictures taken and laughing! it takes so little to make bri have a good time. and im pretty sure us crazy ladies made these strangers night!

i spent some quality time in the sunshine layin by the pool. ate yet another yummy dinner with mom and us, followed by a not so yummy moment of londy throwing up spaghetti in the back seat…all over her carseat…down the floor…grrrr! thank goodness noni lives close and we could go bathe her and thank goodness we had bought new jammies that were in the bag in the car! the weekend was packed full of fun and all with the people i love! how can one be sad about a birthday that starts with vegas and ends with yummy dinner.

i forgot to mention how great the girls at work were to me (oh and cory too…everyones work husband) when i got to work friday my station was decortated top to bottom with glitter, streamers, balloons and bouquets of flowers. i should have gotten pictures of this!

this is me and hadar! is she not the most stunning girl?

thanks for all the memories everyone! it was one heck of a birthday week:)
