Old pics

Officially 30!

So I am now officially 30. No longer a twenty something but now thirty something. Wasn't there a show on tv a LONG time ago called thirtysomething? So yesterday was my birthday and I didn't do much of anything really. We did go to dinner at Geisha which is a sushi/hibachi restaurant. It was just us and Lizzie met us too. N8 wasn't feeling too great and Abby was acting weird so dinner ended around 8ish. By the time we got home and I got Abby out of her carseat she was burning up with fever. So this explains why she wouldn't eat and was so cranky. The birthday celebration quickly came to end at this point. So we gave her some meds, but she didn't really sleep much through the night.....nor did I. She woke up at 5 this morning and maybe napped a total of 3 hours today. As I sit here typing this at nearly 11 tonight, I can still hear her up in her room. What's the deal kiddo? Aren't you tired?

Turning 30 certainly did bring in some fantastic loot!!!! Mom & Dad got me tons of scrapbooking stuff, the French sink from this past weekend and a bracelet with a little charm of Abby. I also got some $$$$$ which I used to buy the necklace that I'm wearing in the pic below and this bathing suit.
Here's a pic from dinner.......

Its hard to see the necklace here but its so gorgeous!! Its a smoky brown quartz. I love it.







N8 got these gorgeous goodies for me:

Thank you N8! I love them.


We also went to an estate sale this weekend where we all found some cool stuff. I think this was my coolest, cheapest find as I saw the exact same thing in Gatesville for $12 and got it for 50 cents on Sunday!
Alrighty, I think this has been a long enough post and I'm gonna try and get some sleep before Abby wakes up.

I'm now a real gardener

This is an actual picture from my garden! I've somehow managed to keep the plants alive and check out what has grown. Honestly, I didn't think I could grow the tomatoes.....thought for sure they'd die before the tomato ever ripened.
So tonight, Abby and I picked the tomato and ate it! Now the thing was only about the size of a golf ball, but its still a tomato. This is proof that I'm now officially a gardener :-)
