Chalk one more year up for this white girl.
Ein und dreizig. That is one and thirty, auf Deutsch (in German... that was my high school language).
We watched General Conference. Loved it. What a birthday gift having conference on my bday. Seriously what a gift not having to get everyone up, dressed, and going.
Weston and the little sweets made me nice artsy pix during conference. We hung them on the windows behind the dining table.
This one is Kate's:
And this one is titled "Mommy As The Goalie" by Spencer:
I LOVE my children's art. Really, really love it.
After conference, Grammie and Grandad (my parental unit) came over. Mom walked in our house carrying homemade chicken and black bean enchiladas, homemade rolls, and chocolate cake with homemade chocolate-peanut-butter-mint frosting (BEST EVER). Talk about delicious aroma. It was my birthday wish, all of those things. Kate made the sweetest little name cards and placed them at our settings at the table.
And after the derlishious meal...peresents. Grammie wraps them oh so pretty!
(Notice Kate's new wings...)
And then the cake. The cake with the frosting. The frosting that tastes like mint. And chocolate. And peanut-butter. All together. This taste I have come to know as the taste of MY BIRTHDAY, ever since I was a wee girl. My mom made it especially for me because I wanted all 3 of my favorite flavors together. Thanks Mom, for loving me so much, then and now. I love it.
Happy is life.
Thanks for all of the calls and "Happy Birthday"s and stuff from everyone. Thanks Mom and Dad for life. Thanks Weston for making my day special, too (we're the same age again ;)).
Yay to 31!
p.s. I'm thinking about ending all of my posts like this:
I REALLY LOVE MY LIFE!
