Ode to 30!



Well as you probably can guess today is my 30th birthday. I would like to say that I know how I feel about that...but I am still not sure. Overall it has been a very good birthday as birthday's go, but it is weird to think I am starting a whole new decade. Today it became abundantly clear just how lucky I truly am to have the family and friends that I have.
My day started with my husband giving me my birthday present. It is an incredibly beautiful lighthouse kaleidoscope. This is awesome for a number of reasons, but mostly because it shows that he really pays attention to me when I talk. We were in Mendocino for our honeymoon and I just fell in love with a lighthouse kaleidoscope at a shop, but did not think it was prudent to get it. So he found me one very similar that is absolutely beautiful. And of course kaleidoscopes make me smile, constantly changing and always fascinating.
Next I went to work where my lovely friends and co-workers welcomed me with this...



It was awesome.

I think one of my favorite parts of the day was that I had cake for breakfast, cake after lunch, cake for dessert after dinner and then my parents came over with more cake. For those that don't know... I LOVE CAKE!!

So as I said overall turning 30 looks like it was not all bad!
