You Say It's Your Birthday!!!

Why, yes it is! I turned 31 day. I celebrated by having a day out with my friend Melody. She took me to lunch and we did a little shopping. She is fab company so that alone made it a pretty spectacular day, except for the craptastic service we got at Applebee's but I am not going to complain on my birthday! I might complain tomorrow, I will let you know.

My dear hubby brought me roses and a Whitman's Sampler, LOL, plus some IOUS for when we have some more cash. My mom got me a new comforter set and a gown, and some cash. I am going on a women's retreat this weekend so I am going to go get some new shirts or maybe some new tennis shoes.

It still surprises me as I get older how much a non event my birthday is anymore. I just remember waiting for them when I was younger and now it is just kinda like EH, although I certainly prefer having birthdays than to the alternative! Oh well, I am now 31, and seems like just a bit ago I was turning 16! Now I have 3 kids, my life still kinda startles me at times, I am kinda like when did this happen, LOL!

Anyway it has been a pretty great birthday, and my dad will make me a birthday dinner Sunday my choice, which was chicken and dumplings! Yum I can't wait!

I wanted to end with the sweet email my darling hubby sent me for my birthday today.

Thirty one years ago you were born.

Fourteen years ago you met me.

Ten years ago you married me.

Eight years ago Alexa was born.

Five years ago Meg was born.

Three years ago cooper was born.

Last year you turned thirty.

This year...

Is another year Alexa, Megan, Cooper, and myself get to spend with you.

Somehow it seems like we are the ones getting the presents.

We love you "oodles",

Alexa, Megan, Cooper, and Bruce

Giving the Blog Thing a Whril

As a member of the world wide web for sometime now, I finally decided to jump into the world of blogging. I doubt that I will have anything earth shattering or all that important to blog about, as the title suggests my life is pretty boring and pretty much revolves around my husband and kids. I figure this can just be a creative outlet for me and will allow me to record some of the day to day events in my life and the life of my family. Along with being a mommy I am an avid reader and would love to blog about the things that I have read here as well. Anyway, it really just boils down to another place where I can maybe get some more adult interaction in my life or at least carry on a conversation with myself.
