Happy Birthday to Me!

Well it happened, I turned 30 yesterday.  It truly was an amazing day.  The celebrating started the night before when my sweet girl friends took me out to dinner at the Cheesecake Factory. 

These girls are amazing friends and we have so much fun when we are together. 

Of course I had cheesecake!  What kind, well what do you think...Pumpkin!  It was so good.  I enhaled it.  That pumpkin cheesecake did not stand a chance!

Wednesday started off with a six mile run with Kya.  It was 55 degrees and wonderful.  There is no better way to start off my birthday than a run with my girl!  When we returned home, Ken and Kya both sang Happy Birthday to me.  

When I arrived at work, my office was all decorated with balloons and streamers.  Everyone was too sweet to me.  

Ken and I originally were going to go out to dinner to celebrate, but I told him I would rather have a night at home with him and the three Hooligans.  We ordered pizza, drank too much wine and enjoyed ice cream cake.  It was a perfect birthday evening.  

 How sweet is my husband?  I turned to get a knife to cut the cake and when I look back, he placed candles on top and started singing Happy Birthday to me!  I may have teared up.  It is the simple things like this that I love so much!

And yes, I am wearing my jammies.  :)  I think in this photo between the braces and jammies, I could easily pass for 25.  :)

It was such an amazing birthday hanging out with friends and my little family.  The celebrating is not over, Ken will be taking me out to dinner next weekend and this weekend, well I will be sipping pina coladas with Miss Michelle on the beach!
