The first of many 29th's....

As my friend Emily perfectly put it, I celebrated the first of many 29th birthdays today. Ask me how old I am next February, and I bet I'll somehow still be 29....amazing how that's going to happen.

The thing is, even though I'm entirely too close to my next decade and I have tons of 30+ year old friends (as well as a 30 year old husband), it's still the age of "old" to me. When I was growing up, 30 was officially old in my mind. So official, I guess, that it's still etched in my brain that way.

I told Ryan I wasn't really interested in celebrating big next year......so he gave me this, this year:

 

After not too much pushing, I was able to figure out that we are headed to San Fran in a few weeks....woo hoo! I'm not allowed to ask many questions....I know that Ryan's parents are coming to watch A and that we'll be gone for a few days. I'm pretty confident we'll have a wonderful time. And I am 100% confident that I am very, very excited. Props to my hubby for writing such a thoughtful poem to convey the good time ahead!

 



Aiden didn't get around to writing me a poem this year, but he did get me a card....such a sweet little boy.
