My birthday

 
 
 
I turned 32 earlier this month.  I am really starting to feel old, I'm not going to lie!  We spent most of my birthday driving home from Arizona (hopefully that is the explanation for why I look so old and tired in this picture), which was just fine because it meant we got to have a fun little getaway with some awesome family time--I am always wishing we had more of that with Brad's schedule!  When we got home we did some presents and got a quick bite to eat.  That bright, shiny treasure around my neck is my present from Maggie--she wanted to make me a medal because as she said, " you are the best mom ever". . .I'll have to remind her of that when she is 15 and can't stand me.  It was such a sweet present from my sweet girl.  After we opened presents we had to go grab a quick bite to eat after our travels.  Ella kept holding us up and wouldn't get ready to go.  I was quite irritated until I realize the reason was she was trying to shake as much money as she could out of her piggy bank so that she could be the one to buy me a piece of cake at the restaurant for my birthday. 
I'm so lucky to have the sweet family I have and a day to feel appreciated and loved by them!

Happy Birthday friend! You look great (not old and tired!) You have darling girls and that medal is fantastic.

Glad you had a little getaway, looks like a fun place.

Happy Birthday Heather! You look beautiful, not old! Tired, yes, but not old. 32? You're still a spring chicken in my book!

Your girls are so sweet - I'm glad Maggie knows you are the world's best mom, cause she's right. And Ella - what a heart of gold she has! The image of her shaking her little piggy bank just melts my heart.

Can't wait to see you guys!!!
