29


Yep I am in my last year of my 20s! I have had a wonderful weekend of celebrating (and cake eating)! It started with a fun dinner with my family at my moms house on Friday. She made me her famous "Sunday Roast" dinner by my request- love it, love it! It is so nice to be so close with my family and even Chad drove in!
Then Saturday Travis and I headed downtown for a little getaway night. We are so thankful to our friend who gave us the night as a thank you gift. AND A huge thank you to my parents for babysitting Alex!!! It was so nice! We stayed at the Omni where Matt (Travis's brother who works there) hooked us up big time. He even had them deliver cupcakes to the room- so sweet! We went to dinner at fancy Flemmings which was out of this world fabulous. Travis and I both made note of how nice waiters can be when you aren't at the local Chili's (for example). Needless to say we enjoyed not having to feed and entertain a toddler too...I'd say just a little. We stuffed ourselves silly and waddled (well, me for sure) back to the hotel. Sad to say, yes, there was no wild night out at a bar or anything to report. And it just happened to be FREEZING outside anyway. We really just wanted to rent a movie and cuddle in bed. A great night in this pregnant girls book! :)
And my birthday gift was a new point and shoot camera that also shoots HD video- for easy carrying in the diaper bag or Dads pocket (Thanks Kristen G for letting us copy you!). I love it and I am so excited about it! So look forward to some fun videos of the little guy soon!
It was a very happy happy birthday.

note: we didn't sit this way at dinner, it was only for the picture, and that is not my wine glass I am sad to say. I know what you where all thinking
