I made it to 30!!!

Well, my 30th birthday was last week. I had a hard time with 30! The celebration started on Monday when I decided that I would celebrate the whole week and get a Dairy Queen cake to eat EVERY NIGHT! I will be paying for that this week. Then on Wednesday night, Andy surprised me with an overnight trip with some of our friends to the Horseshoe casino. We have been trying to make it to Vegas, but life is just too crazy right now! Then on Thursday the drill team brought me a cake. So, we had cake at 7:30am! All of my students were aware of my birthday because I have had a count down on my board all month! Then some of the teachers surprised me with breakfast rolls that should be considered a dessert. All day I had treats brought to my room, and my sister and brother sent me some beautiful flower. The card was addressed to their "Older Sister"...Ha Ha. Then I was sitting at my desk at school and I looked up and my good friends Stacy and April were standing in my doorway. They told me to get me stuff because we were going out. I was SHOCKED. It took me the whole ride to York to understand that I was not in charge of the plans. If you know me, then you know that I am usually the planner! We picked up another friend, Mary, and we went to dinner. Then we made our way back to Friend where we met more friends at the Country Club for cake and drinks. It was so much FUN! I don't have any pictures of my birthday to post yet, but when I get some I will post them!

We have this stocking hat that Luke got in the hospital because he was born on a Nebraska football game day. Well, the boys LOVE to wear this stocking hat. Connor will sleep with it in his bed and put it on at bedtime. It is so cute. So, I thought you might like to see some pictures of the kids from this week. I hope everyone has a nice week. I have to go to bed now because I am in my 30s!!!!
