It Is Official..

It is Official... I am OLD. 

On April 22 I turned 30. 

Ever since then things have been falling apart. Let me just name a few: 

1. I have age spots on my hands. 

2. With this pregnancy I have gained A LOT more weight and I am only 5 months along. 

3. I have gray hair, there are wrinkles around my eyes and the list goes on... 

But, with turning 30 came some good things too.

I better start from the beginning.

 Gavin sent me flowers that morning, I love flowers so that was fun! Then I called him to go to lunch with me, but he had a lot to do for work, so I ate lunch by myself at home. (I kind of had a pity party about it.) Then at 5:00 we went to dinner just the two of us. Preston had a baseball game at 7:00, Mom came over to watch the kids and we headed to Texas Roadhouse. It was raining and Preston's game ended up being canceled. Gavin had told me that we were going to just have our parents come over and have cake after the game, because it would be to late for a real party. After the game was canceled Gavin said,  "Dang we should have called all the family now that there isn't going to be a game."

But he never called anyone. (I again kind of had a pity party, in my mind.) After dinner he said, "Hey lets go shopping since we don't have to hurry home."
Sweet! I thought. Then he drove to Walmart and we bought a mat for the car. Nice. After that we stopped at Big 5 and Rebel Sports and bought GAVIN some new shoes. (Okay my idea of shopping was a lot different. I wanted some new clothes, maybe?! Nope, Gavin got shoes.)

As we were driving home he told me he got a text from his dad that said he had left my present at his house and wanted to know if we would stop and get it. As we pulled up to the house, Gavin motioned for me to get out and go get it. I LOST it!

 I said "Let me think about this day for just a second. First I ate lunch alone, then we went shopping and bought YOU new shoes and a floor mat.  Your mom completely forgot my birthday for the second year in a row and now you want ME to get out and go GET my OWN present!"
I then jumped out of the car, slammed the door and ran up to Dennis front door. I flung it open only to hear,

"SURPRISE!"

All of our family was there with a big sign to wish me Happy Birthday! Oh man did I feel dumb! I had a big pity party for no reason. 

All in all it turned out to be a fun day. The surprise was great and I was happy to  spend my birthday with my family and friends. They are really all that matter anyway.
