29.

Not to be confused with the cute, 6 month 29 that's almost crawling around.  But 29.  as in 29 years old.  My birthday.  A big deal-always.  I don't care, don't feel bad about it as a friend would say...thankyouverymuch.  I love celebrating birthdays.  I'm pretty sure I do a post on this every year!  HECK yes I'm alive.  Let's celebrate!  There were several celebrations!

So Russ was pretty much awesome this year!!
First there was a surprise FRIEND night to go see Ingrid.  It required babysitters, coordination with friends, and keeping quiet:)  He did well.

Then there was a some awesome Gifts, gift card and running paraphernalia. 

And the last awesome gift was to a FREAKIN NBA game.  My FIRST NBA game with the boys.  Suddenly it made me feel a little old because I hardly knew any of the NBA players....I did know the coaches though!  But there was something really cool seeing the Magic play.. I kept thing Penny Hardaway (one of my fave players) used to wear those jerseys.  How wicked!

And another perk of having your Della be with you at your house was that she surprised me with a celebration when my Dad was visiting!  It was very awesome-cake, balloons, presents!!!

My school surprised me with an ice cream cake!  I was reminded of how lucky I was to have such a great job!

And lastly, there was a GIRL Dancing NIGHT in Denver that was pretty much amazing!  It had been a long time for some of us and Denver did not disappoint.  And I have to mention that Della camped out around Denver to be our DD (yea we are lucky!)

Great times.  Love my family.  Love my friends.  Love my life!
