old lady birthday party

so...i am now inmy thirties. last wednesday i turned thirty one. i know, i know, i have already been thirty for a year now, but for some reason this birthday makes it official. we celebrated by grilling burgers at the river with the rettelis and the digmans. had a few beers and then some of karin's famous tres leches cake. sooo yummy! it was one of my favorite birthdays so far, even if i am an old lady! thirty one is the new twenty one, didn't you know?

vivi's shiner

vivi got into a brawl on saturday...with a pile of rocks. she was playing at mimi's house and she fell right onto her left eye. but we think it makes her look tough!

sunshine on jordie's b-day

jordan's birthday was awesome. not only was he completely surprised about his party but he was also lucky enough to have the most beautiful weather on sunday. we spent his birthday afternoon bbq-ing and hanging out on the deck with the kids. jordie spent his birthday gift card on a pool for the kids and a lounge chair for me. what a great dad! we love him even if he's an old fart!
