The BIG 30!

Well, today is my 30th birthday. 3 decades old. Humph! The good thing about getting older is that you don't really feel it until it is too late. I don't feel any different other than having to convince people that I am 30 and not 17. I am married. I get strange looks-like "You are too young to be married". I have a child. That seems to push them over the edge- "Really? Hmmm...you still look 17". I guess it is a good thing and I am glad that it is that way and not the other "You are only ___?" that would really suck.
It was a really good couple of days-other than the fact that Matt had to work a lot of hours because he has a demo on Tuesday.

Dinner last night consisted of Kisho's. It is a teppan style restaurant and Katie loved it. The food was excellent as always and it was Matt, Katie, mom, sis, her boyfriend, bro and dad. We went to my house and ate the cake I made-Pineapple-Coconut Cake AKA: Better than Sex Cake. My grandma used to make this cake for all our birthdays for as long as I can remember. What a treat it is. I opened my gifts.....a sewing machine, boots, face mask/facial scrub/facial lotion, a dragonfly necklace, Twilight (the book), a sweater dress and the razor I have been looking for for years. OMG! My DAD of all people got me this razor. How funny is that? When Matt and I had our house fumigated in July, we stayed with my parents. I used her razor (the same exact one I first shaved my legs with when I was 12!!!!!!) and could not stop talking about how close it shaves. It is actually discontinued and has been for a long time. My dad found it on E-bay and won it for me. Kudos to dad for: 1. Listening to what I like 2. Doing something about it 3. Suprising everyone with it.....especially me. I *LOVE* all my gifts. Good job everyone!

Today, Matt and I went to dinner at Sushimi. The one thing I asked him for-a nice sushi dinner. It was the yummiest dinner I have had in a long time. Spicy Tuna Hand Rolls made to order "With the tuna chunked, not mixed. Add cucumber, gobo, sprouts. No mayo. Medium to Hot spicy." Katie stayed with my mom and dad. My mom taught her how to say "snowman" and "Happy Birthday". Yes, she is 13 months old and can say "Happy Birthday"....lol. She has the most incredible vocabulary I have ever seen!

Where is Katie????

There she is!!!!
