The Big 3-0!

Today I turned 30 years old. I didn't think that it would make me feel old, but it kinda does. :) I had a wonderful birthday. Curt went out and got us donuts for breakfast. Then, I got to open my presents. He did a great job shopping and I love everything he picked out! For lunch we went out to Olive Garden and then stopped by the mall for a little while. We spent the rest of the afternoon relaxing at home. I hope this getting older doesn't mean that gray hairs are going to start showing up!

While I got ready this morning, Curt got out his old car track. He hasn't used it in many years, so he wasn't sure if it would work. Ben loved watching the cars race around the track.

We enjoyed eating lunch at Olive Garden. Ben was too interested in coloring to look up at the camera.

I love cheesecake for my birthday and Curt made this one for me all by himself. It is a chocolate chip recipe that is one of my favorites. He only added one candle per decade...we didn't want to mess up the whole top of the cake.

After Ben's nap we took a walk in our neighborhood. We stopped at the playground to let Ben run around. I'm wearing a new winter hat that Curt got me for my birthday. It was cold out there!

Curt helped Ben climb up to the slide. It is a pretty steep climb for a little guy!

Getting ready to go down the big slide. We didn't stay at the playground too long because it started to sprinkle on us.
