35

Whewwwwww! Birthday number 35 was awesome! Turning 35 wasn't at all what I had imagined. I thought I'd be depressed and moping around all day but it was a great day. The hubs took Kaelyn to her Girl Scout event International Day while I got to get some extra zzzzzz's. The different troops picked a country and had booths set up where they would teach the other scouts about their countries. Kaelyn's troop had India. The girls dressed up in saris that her math teacher let them borrow. They also had bindis on! I'm waiting for a picture from the troop leader since parents didn't go to this event. After a breakfast of yummy coffee from Starbucks and a blueberry scone (along with some beautiful birthday flowers from the best hubby on the planet) I was up and ready to have some pampering. Got my makeup done at the MAC counter at Nordstrom's then got my nails did. My toes were absolutely disgusting. Think the last time I had them done was when Kaelyn and I went for her birthday way back in September. lol What can I say, I'm a beast! The hubs BBQ'd some steaks for dinner with the fam then it was off for drinks and dancing. If every birthday was this good I won't mind getting older!

After dinner we went to the Yardhouse to have some drinks with some of the crazy girls I work with and their hubbys. The hubs' brother and step-brother and his pal came along too. After that we went to a piano bar for more drinks and dancing. They made me get on the damn stage to make me do some stupid dance for my birthday. Luckily there is no evidence of this embarrassment! We get to celebrate all over again for the hubby's birthday in 3 weeks!!
