Last Friday, April 16, I shed my 20's and gracefully donned a full 3 decades! I know what you're thinking, "how can such a cute, hip chick be 30?" But it's true and I'm happy.
In my 20's I got married, gave birth 3 times, bought 2 homes, deepened my belief in my religion, traveled the world, learned to eat right and exercise, along with other accomplishments that I'm proud of.
In my 30's I plan to give birth a couple more times, thus fully submerging myself into soccer/PTA mom. I guess I better buy myself a pair of keds and pull the overall capris out of the archives. I would also like to travel even more far and wide, get myself into even better shape, continue to serve in my church and build my testimony. These are the things that make me most happy.
For my big day John took me to the tulip festival at Thanksgiving Point. Then like the party animals we are, we went to REI to look at double jogging strollers. That was actually to kill time until our 6:00 dinner reservation at Tuscany. After dinner it was still early and we weren't ready to head to the hotel so we took the party to Home Depot where we looked at new kitchen sinks and ceiling fans (I'm serious). On our way back to the hotel we stopped at Denny's and ordered 4 different desserts to go (still serious). We stayed the night at the Anniversary Inn in the Phantom of the Opera room.
We gorged ourselves on chocolate desserts and slept soundly on the fluffy bed. By morning it was all over. We had to get up early and head home for 2 soccer games and a baby shower.
Thankfully, 30 never felt so good!

Happy Birthday!
I enjoyed turning 30 as well. I felt like I had credibility as an adult.
And actually I liked 50. Sister Hinckley said 50 was her favorite age.
