Celebrating 30 years !

Starting the weekend Friday night when my wonderful in laws took me out to eat for my birthday. I wearing the necklace that my mother sent me in this picture. The restaurant was in the same plaza we go to for the farmers market every Wed night and we wanted to try it out. We were not let down either the food was amazing and at the end of the meal they gave us each a shot of Sambuca with three coffee beans in it, representing Past Present and Future. We were to eat the Present and Future and leave the Past bean ! Did I mention the Sambuca was on fire as well....whoa !
Once we got home ......
I was changing the baby into his pj's when they set this all up for me. I was surprised by the beautiful cake from AJ's they picked up with my favorite flavors Raspberry and chocolate .
Wonderful family celebrating my birthday
Milk does a body good
Very excited about my new ipod! Since Grace ate my last one
Hey it wouldn't be my blog if I didn't have pictures of Alistair in it

My most favorite gift from my husband was the DVD he made of all our "changes in 2008 " I was in tears on some of the most special moments like our son's birth and our trip to Roaton.
Alistair and Grace crawling around my feet while I opened presents
Sunday,I wanted to find a way to get all my friends together for my birthday and since its football season I thought what a better way to do that by having everyone meet a my favorite sports bar "Buffalo Wings Wings" (BW3's) So Jeff and I started saving tables and eating wings at 9:30am till our movie started at 3:30pm..whoa long day , but alot of fun. Thanks to all my friends that made it ! The movie "Couples Retreat" was pretty funny too..See it with your spouse !
All the football was starting to make us ladies a little crazy so we tried acting like our husbands by putting on their sunglasses

Monday Night (my actual birthday)In my beautiful new dress from my mother. Jeff took me to an undisclosed location for my birthday dinner. I was pleasantly surprised at his research on this fabulous restaurant in Phoenix. It even inspired us to start our "Two to Review" blog coming soon . All I will say now is that it was Italian cuisine and that they specialize in their homemade pastas. It was amazingly wonderful to sit across the table from my husband and enjoy a dinner for the two of us.

What a fantastic birthday weekend, that I will remember for years to come. Thanks everyone who made this day so special for me.
