30th Birthday
What a great day. Both my family and my in-laws drove into Columbus to help me celebrate the big 3-0. Good food at an Italian restaurant, one of my favorite cakes ever, and overly generous gifts (even though Christmas was just days ago. Sometimes a December birthday can be both a blessing and curse, depending on which end you're on). I'm sure I need it, but it was still funny to receive an anti-aging skin care line from Mary Kay from my mother as one of my presents. Parents are staying in town for a few more days to hang out and I have about half a week left to enjoy my vacation. House is completely clean, so I can truly relax these next few days. I'm really blessed to have a great family and to have such great in-laws. Just 10 more years and I'm "over the hill"! Ahhh! Nah, I'm completely looking forward to new experiences and growing older, and hopefully, wiser.
