entering a new decade

On Sunday, Jason turned 30. Whew! In recent weeks he has told me that 30 year olds should no longer eat Captain Crunch cereal and that 30 year old bones ache more than 30 week pregnant ladies so I should get him a drink of water. Being 30 sounds rough! I'm glad I have over 3 more years to find out!
We had some friends over for cake (I made him an ice cream sandwich cake he had been wanting to try--it was delicious and so easy!) and ate tacos for dinner, his favorite. At school the next day his friend Brandon posted flyers all over the school announcing Jason was so good looking he was having difficulty making friends, and would someone call him to cheer him up? There was a gorgeous picture of him on the flyer, as well as his cell phone number, and in tiny letters at the bottom, "Happy Birthday Jason." Jason's day was spent trying to round them all up, but he enjoyed the prank. All in all, a successful way of entering his 30's.


These are my two favorites, exactly as they looked one year ago. Addie, the budding optometrist's daughter, and Jason, the happy dad. What beautiful eyes they both have!

Happy Birthday!

The cake made me laugh.

I loved turning 30 last year. 30 is so much better than the 20s.

I hate to be a downer, but physically, it's only down hill from 30. Tell Jason to try being 30-something y.o. AND 30 weeks pregnant! (Been there, done that and will do it again in about 12 weeks Not fun!) But, on the bright side, you're more confidant of who you are so, it's a trade off!

How do you make an ice cream sandwich cake? Sounds good.
