Another year closer


It seems like time is going way too fast. I am getting closer and closer to the big hill. I don't feel like I should be. When I was a kid I would think those people with over the hill parties, and all the black balloons were really old.
I wouldn't be anywhere else, or any other age. I am content, and just plain happy. I have the most amazing and wonderful husband. I have the most wonderful kids. The day was perfect, I was in the kitchen doing what I love and spending the day with the people I love.

One of the many things I love about my sweet husband is, I tell him something that I want or I would love a longer rolling pin and the next thing I know he is out in his wood shop making it. It was the best birthday present! I used it to make my Halloween donuts. Thanks honey!


Thursday Dave took me to Tucano's for dinner, and then on Friday of course were the kids class parties, then Saturday we celebrated birthday/Halloween. Our good friends had us over for a birthday dinner and then after the rain we sent the kids out trick or treating.
What happened to the good old days when Colton and Morgan dressed up in something cute and adorable? Really, Zombies. At least I still have Chase the dragon to dress up. :)

It was such a great birthday celebration! I can't wait for next year and all the black balloons and whatever comes. It doesn't matter the number you are. It's like Chase says, "Mom what numbers are you? And I tell him 3 and 9. And his response, "Ahh, no way Mom, you are 3 like me!"
