34

I turned 34 today!  Wow!

And, I feel every bit of my 34 years right now-ha!

It has been a great day and my family made it very special for me.

I did receive a very early wake up call from Nora, but she gave me the gift of going back to sleep…thank you baby!

When I came downstairs this morning, this is what greeted me:

A sign made by my three favorites!

The girls had wrapped presents and made cards and Matthew left them out before leaving for work:

They were so excited about me opening them.  They picked them up all by themselves:

Elyn picked out the flowers and Nora got me the vase.  Sweet girls!

We went to our mommy and me group this afternoon and my friend, Jasmine, had a cake for me.  We came home and the girls got a long nap (another present for me-ha!) while I read all of my Facebook birthday wishes, which made me feel like the most loved person on Earth!

Matthew came home and I got to open some other gifts..a gift certificate for a pedicure and a new compact camcorder!  I had mentioned last week that I wanted a Flipcam.  Well, someone was listening because that is what I opened up today!  Well, not the Flipcam, a Kodak version of it.  It’s waterproof too!  My phone does take video but it will not zoom and the playback is a bit grainy.  Anyway, I’m excited and look forward to many more videos of our kids being taken!

We went out to eat and had a very nice time and then came home and ate some cake that Matthew and the girls made last night.  My favorite, white cake and white icing:

Nora found some tablecloths and party stuff that I had put away, from old birthday parties, and she pulled it out and decorated the dining room for my “party”.  I love that girl!

It was a low-key, fabulous birthday party!!!!!  I am so lucky to have such a great husband and precious daughters.  They are my best gifts!
