A Milestone

I got a message from a neighbor yesterday telling me that a gift had been delivered to her house since I wasn't home, and that I could find it on her table. I was anxious to get there and find out what it was!....

It was this fabulous spring bouquet from my sweet husband. I think it is SO pretty!

For some people 4/20 means 'it's time to smoke pot,' Adolf Hitler's Birthday, the date of the Oklahoma City bombing, or the date of the Columbine shootings. Basically, it symbolizes a lot of negative things in the world. But for me, it symbolizes a birthday, and this year was a milestone. Here is a picture of my birthday cake made exactly as I like by my mom, and decorated by my nephew Jake. For those of you who are counting, there are 23 candles there. That number is unfortunately inaccurate. I guess Jake was 7 candles shy. That's right, people, I'm 30! Aaaaah! I can't believe I'm that old! But I've been told 30 is the new 20. Oh hell, I can't do my 20's again! (sorry for the language, but it's just appropriate for how I feel about the subject) I'd just like to be 30, thank you very much. =)
