THIRTY!

If you have talked to me recently, you will know that I had a hard time with the fact that I was going to turn THIRTY on Saturday (9/18). I am not sure exactly why I was having a hard time, lots of mixed emotions for a lot of different reasons. I was not looking forward to it!
Saturday morning started out horrible. Both kids were up a little after 7am. Kylee is sooooo sweet. She took Maleigha downstairs to play. I fell back asleep for about 20 min or so. The girls came back upstairs and Kylee wished me a Happy Birthday and then told Maleigha to do the same. Love those girls! We all slowly got ready for the day. Maleigha was being a holy terror! She was just naughty. So naughty I had a meltdown in my bathroom. In the midst of my meltdown she comes in and says "Mommy potty pant." Translation: She wet her pants (not me). Lovely. So I got her changed and we headed to the library where she continued to be a holy terror. She was running up and down the aisles laughing as I was trying to catch her. She knocked a few things off a few shelves. One lady even tried helping me stop her but she dodged her. The only thing keeping me sane was the fact that it was almost nap time! After that fun trip, we headed back home. As we were finishing lunch (where all Maleigha would eat was apples), Bob (grandpa) showed up to help me with my lawn. I laid Maliegha down for her nap and Kylee ended up going home with Bob. I enjoyed the silence! I cleaned a tiny bit but relaxed and read for the most part...which was good because this was not turning out to be a happy day!
We had a family dinner planned at 4 for my birthday. As I drove up I wondered why everyone was parked so weird..not in their normal spots. I walked in and saw this:
Ok so this doesn't show all the cute decorations! I told Kelly it looked like a real party. She said it was. I didn't believe her. Surprise! It was a real party. Made. My. Day! It meant  a lot to me that Kelly and my mom put this all together. It turned my not so good day into a very good day!
Yes the girls were there but we didn't get any pictures of them. :)
Thank you Kelly and Mom for putting this together, it meant a lot.
Thank you to everyone who made turning 30 not so bad.

It was a fun party! I am glad it helped make your day better. Although I think you look fabulous and have nothing to worry about. :)

Did your mom make that potato salad?? It was really good. I have actually never made potato salad..do you have her recipe.
