Yikes, I'm 30!

I've officially joined the big 3-0 club. Crazy! I still don't feel old enough to have kids yet I have 3 of them! Should I be worried about wrinkles or gray hair? So far I don't see evidence of either and thanks to my genes I shouldn't for awhile yet.

I decided to make myself a very yummy Turtle Cheesecake. I don't make fancy desserts very often, so we really enjoyed this! My sister Jaime had sick kids so we ended up going to my Mom and Step Dad's on my birthday to make Valentine sugar cookies with my sister Holly and her kids. This is Devon (Holly's son), Theya and my Mom Connie and Step Dad Monte putting sprinkles on cookies.

Theya had so much fun!
Look at the little baker in training!
Devon, Zachie (Holly's boys) and Theya decorating the cookies. I think they ate more frosting and candy than made it on their cookies!
Gannon and Kalen eating dinner at Grandpa and Grandma's. They have the restaurant style high chairs since they have so many grand kids that need them. I think they need to get a few more since Holly and Tiffany are both due the end of August. That will make 11 grand kids for my parents and 3 of us girls aren't even married yet. How many grand kids will they have!?!

Cousins in the tub, rub-a-dub-dub!
Ice Cream Cake, yummy!

Turning 30 really wasn't so bad, its just a number, a big number!

I agree age is only a number. I just turned 77 but my mind seems a lot younger but my body does not agree. The pictures and your writings are great. I really enjoy them. Grandma

No worries about the smoke Dee, it never came toward the house and didn't bother us. Thanks so much for the birthday card and butter braid. We ate it for breakfast this morning, it was sooo good.

Hey! Watch what your calling old girl! Lol. 30 IS just a number and there are no wrinkles or gray hair coming anytime soon so don't you worry. VERY cute pics!! Wanna come over this week for coffee/tea? My weeks are free of commitments now. My husband about freaked when I told him I haven't put my birth kit together yet. Whoops. I need to do that tomorrow. Not today... ;) We'd love to have you come over!

Hi Jennifer, coffee/tea sounds great. The only day that doesn't work for me is Friday. Other than that any time would work, just let me know.
