On Saturday, I celebrated my 30th birthday. It was so nice to spend the day with my boys and just enjoy our time together. Reid had some flowers and a cake for me, as well as some chocolates and jewelry. What more could I ask for! For lunch, Reid grabbed some subs for us from Subway and then we did the traditional birthday cake thing. After cake, Kai took a nap, and we got ready to go to Denver for the night's gymnastics meet with BYU. On the way to Denver we stopped at Elephant Bar for dinner and then we were off to the meet. I'll admit that the meet was a bit of a disaster for the kids, but at least now I know. Poor Finn was so tired and couldn't sleep because it was so loud. And Kai got bored after about 20 minutes. But at the beginning, he LOVED it! At the end of the meet, we got to go down on the floor and say hello to my old coaches, and that was the highlight for me. We ended up back home around 9:30 and the boys were exhausted. By the time we got everyone to bed, it was bedtime for us, too. But it was a very happy birthday!
Birthday cake--Reid grouped 24 candles together,
to represent our 24 years apart, and then 6 candles
along the bottom for 6 years together. It made a HUGE flame!
Playing with some of the features of my camera. Look at my cute boys!
The middle of the meet. Thank goodness for lollipops!
The end of the meet. So sweet!
Me at the meet!

You know, you still look like you're 22. Which makes me only 23! Here's to our good fortune in having great genes! Oh - and 30 was the best year of my life so far!
Wait, is that me sitting next to you in the last photo? haha It kinda looks like me.
