I'm kinda a big deal :)

(The photos are not in order - sorry!)

My family came down to celebrate Christmas and my birthday (hence why I'm kinda a big deal - duh!).  This birthday didn't feel any different b/c it was my 30th. (YAY!)  There is so much hype to turning thirty.  For some reason, people express sympathy for turning 30.  I just don't get it.   It's just another year  - that I'm lucky to have - and I'm really ok with it!  My twenties were awesome - coupled with some hard times - but I came out on top and I'm ready for the next decade of my thirties!  I may not always feel this way - getting older doesn't bother me.  So thirties - you are welcome to stay around (really - I have no other choice - lol)

Now, on to the part that you are more excited about - the photos!

His laugh is priceless!

Such a sweet moment

Yes, those are napkins she got for Christmas!

The boyz

I love a full kitchen!

Daddy and his kiddos :)  Oh that hat...

She wanted to be like Vann and bathe in the sink....why not?

My birthday dinner.  Yum yum! 

They were having quite a good time singing to me.  I love them.

This was our family's celebration.  Annyson loves parties of any kind so I told her we were going to celebrate Mommy's birthday again, just with our family.  She asked "Like with Nonnie, Paps and Grandma?"  I said "no baby, just with our family".  She said "Oh, like with you, Daddy, Vann and Uncle Jay!"  I love that Uncle Jay is part of our family.  I think a few people will have a hard time when the time comes for Uncle Jay to move on to his next venture... :(

The end.
