I had another birthday, of which I'm very grateful for. Let's consider the alternative, right? So I'm 34. I say it proudly, because the kids do, to everyone. "My mom is older than your mom." Nice, right? Nothing like kids being proud of their aged mother. Really though, I love it. It was a great day, and poor Josh, with my birthday on a Saturday, and Mother's day the next day, he really had his work cut out for him. I was trying to convince him to do a birthday month, or at least a week. But he said two days in a row were enough. Luckily, he treats me so good on my unbirthdays, he got away with it.
My special chocolate mousse cake from Colleen. Josh and I kept this cake a secret from the kids...shhh....
Heading out on our fancy date to Applebee's and Ironman 2. Brave Susie and Shelley watched the kids. All of them. For free. And brought cake and presents. Sweetness huh!
I love getting help to blow out candles every year. And yes, Aria did get a fistful there. That was one tasty cake. I'm drooling just thinking about it right now.
The group responsible for the fun cake, I hear we could've won $10,000 from America's Funniest Videos if they had it taped. Something about Liam's knees in the middle of the cake and the repair job afterwards?
At the park for a KFC lunch with the family. Aren't they so hilariously fun?
It was such a fun day!! Just thinking about it now makes me smile still. And Mother's Day was great too. Josh and the kids made me a book with a poem in it and pictures of me and the kids. Family IS what life's all about. *grateful sigh*

What a fun day! Too bad your BFF can't get herself in gear and get your treats to you on time (wink wink). And being old just means your wiser and better at mothering so haha young'uns.
