My 31st Birthday

This birthday was easily one of the best that I can remember in a LONG time. This is probably because I usually don't celebrate my birthday. Since having kids, I just believe birthdays are for kids. After all, I had plenty before they came along. Now, it's all about them.

This year, for whatever reason, God decided I should have a special day(weekend really). I started off my birthday/Mother's Day weekend with Muffins for Mom at the boys school. I've never gotten a chance to go since I always work in another country it seems. So this was very special for me.

After breakfast, I headed off to work. There my awesome co-workers, whom I've only known for 3 weeks, threw a birthday party filled with food they all made by hand just for me. Got me cupcakes, pizza and even a gift certificate for a scrub shop in our area. As if that weren't enough, they let me off 2 hours early to go spend my present.

Matt and Taya joined us for lunch and surprised me with beautiful pink roses.

The next day, on my birthday day, I started off the day at my folks for a garage sale...until mother nature decided we were threw. After that, made a family trip to Walmart(always fun...NOT) then home for a short nap with my favorite little princess.

After we were well rested and rejuvenated we headed out for a family fun night of bowling at Strikz in Frisco.  We had a blast. I'll let the pics do the rest of my yappin'.
