My (30th) Birthday!

Yes, my 30th birthday has finally arrived! I had a great day. I went grocery shopping...alone! That's the best present anyone could ask for! haha! Shawn and the girls decorated the tv room and we had a yummy cookie cake. I'm not as upset as I thought I would be about turning 30. It's just a number. That's what my mom tells me. And my dad says- you can't stop it from coming, so why get upset about it. I think I agree! I had a great day and look forward to the next 30!

Shawn and the girls decorated the tv room with balloons, signs, party hats and noise makers. 

Arilyn kept blowing her noise maker at Ellie because she would try to bite it. Arilyn was laughing so hard! It was hilarious.

Addison saying cheese!

Whoa! It's a rhino Mommy! Arilyn was trying to put my birthday hat on!

Addison playing with the balloons. I think she's pretending to blow it up.

Mommy and Arilyn.

The girls talked Shawn into buying a pin the tail on the donkey game. This is Arilyn with the blindfold on. She has a red mouth because they stole a lick of icing from the cake already.

I think Arilyn was cheating- she put the tail right in the right place!

Mommy didn't do very good at all! I put it on his back!

Addison tried to play, but wouldn't leave the blindfold on.

Even with her eyes wide open, she put the tail on the donkey's face! It was funny!

Yummy cookie cake! It was SO good! And dinner was, too. Shawn grilled steaks.

And the party continues! This was actually the next day. Arilyn thought Ellie didn't get enough of her hat on my birthday. As you can see- Ellie is completely enjoying herself! Haha! Poor Ellie. She has to endure so much! Haha! She is a great dog!
