The Big 3-0

Yep, it's true. Wednesday I did it. Turned the big 30. I really thought I'd be ok with it. Maybe if I didn't just have a baby and have substantial weight to lose and hormones to hone in would have enjoyed it more. Instead I spent the evening crying and having a pity party for ridiculous reasons. I do feel better knowing that many others have shared the same feelings. I'm better now, though and don't care so much. Well,as long as I don't think about the number. Shouldn't I feel more grown up or something? Well, I'm glad i don't.
It was a great 3 days though. Yep, Dave took of 3 days of work for me. Tuesday I got a fantastic pedicure with Katie and had the best most sinful salad at Zupas, the apple, almond, blueberry one.
Wednesday we enjoyed a snow day. If you know me you know I was less than thrilled to wake up to snow. It was pretty though. My sisters and their families came over for cake and ice cream that night. It was so nice to have them over for a little party. I so much appreciated it.
Thursday was great. My awesome sister Karen took the kids and Dave and I went to the Body World exhibit in Salt Lake. It was cool. I wasn't sure, but it was very interesting. I'm glad we went. That evening my best friends from Minnesota took me out for dessert. It was so fun to get out and laugh like crazy.
So see, I told you I had a pity party for nothing. It was a great birthday. Who can argue with a hormonal outburst, though? And I'm not ready to post pictures of myself yet. I'm working up the courage. So there, just being honest. Maybe later. And, I don't really have any pictures to post anyway.
