Totally Over the Twenties

This post is late, but my birthday was one of the best yet! The day started with a play date with some of the greatest friends and cake at the pool! That night Chad and I got to go out on a date and we hit up Shoguns(too good)! Does a day get any better? Pool, good friends, date with husband....bliss! I have decided that may be the perfect day!
I was also blessed enough got get some stellar gifts. I may get in trouble for posting this, but my bff, Kim got me American Idol tour tickets! I think that could be one of coolest gifts ever! I do not want to down play the other great gifts I received, but I thought it was note worthy.
I was able to top off my birthday with a brunch at Mimi's a few days later with five fabulous friends. I will say that getting to go to brunch and lunch with the girls is a big perk to not working! With all the fun estivities I did not get any pictures....bug!

Although all the attention, gifts, and time with friends was nice, I am really glad to be over the twenties. The twenties were fun, exciting, thrilling, care free, light, and a introduction to reality! I graduated from college, lived on my own, started my career, fell in love, bought my first house, got married, gave birth, and put a hold on my career all in 10 years. I laugh because I do not think I could have lived up my life any more than I did the last 10 years! That is just it. I am ready to live my life for my family that I have been blessed with. If you know me, you know there is not doubt I will get my time, but when it comes to down to it I want to live for my family for a while. I have been talking about being thirty constantly, because my closest friends here are in their mid or upper thirties. I sound like a teen who wants to be older, but I was feeling left out for still being in the twenty decade!
Thirty is what you make it. I don't plan on acting different, because I am married to Mr. Responsible. Marrying someone who takes life a little more seriously than I do gives me the green card to not take things so seriously! We have a great balance.
I need to quit rambling now, so I can go get my birthday pedicure!
