30th Birthdays

This year Clint and I turned 30.  It was sad.  I walked around for weeks saying “well I am still in my 20’s” to everyone, I mean everyone.  But those days are officially over.  Clint and I are just two weeks apart so we somewhat celebrate together.  Once again we had an all out birthday week for Clint.  I don’t remember all the details, but I know it involved lots of pizza, beer, Bass Pro Shop and double doozie cookie sandwiches.  My birthday week involved packing for Colorado.  Yeah.  I did get a massage and a girls’ night out. 

My family also threw us a joint birthday party at the lake with more double doozie cookie sandwhiches and a special "thirtini".  It was a lot of fun.  We arrived to the cabin on my actual birthday and like always Clint’s family had a little party waiting for me (with the most delicious mountain meal ever).  

This is 10 years ago right before our 20th birthdays.  Those are the Twin Towers in the background.  Unfortunately I don't have a picture of us from this year.  Boo.

Clint got lots and lots of love on his actual birthday.

One of Clint's presents was he and Sawyer got matching basketball shorts (Beau already had a pair).  Sawyer was thrilled and couldn't wait for Clint to open them up.

Clint's birthday cake of choice this year.  Each cookie sandwich had 3/4 stick of butter in them.

Clint's folks came to celebrate.  Even Uncle A was there virtually.

No birthday kisses for me.

On my actual birthday we had lunch in downtown Salida, CO.  I found the perfect restaurant that had exactly what I wanted.  Then the kiddos proceeded to have a meltdown.  I guess it was a good effort.
