2010....the year that turning 30 was COOL!

Yes friends this is the year.... A large group of friends, Nate and myself included will all turn the Big 30 this year. I am fine with it, really not sure what b-day I won't be fine with since I love to celebrate them. It is funny to talk to some friends though and well, they are just not too sure about turning 30. Anyway, it happens, we must embrace it and thank the Lord for the past 30 years of blessings.

This weekend we left the kiddos with my parents and headed to G-burg for a surprise 30th. Nate's aunt, Sonya, turned 30 on Friday and we were hiding in the cabin when we gave her very unexpected "surprise!" Here she is looking up at us, speechless and confused.

We hung out that nite and ate lots. Here is Court getting prepared for her skiing adventure the next day. She was the only one in the group that could have sat on this thing and not crushed it!

The birthday girl and her best buddy Dana after a good round of "Happy B-day" and the blowing out of the matchstick candle!

The birthday girl had been told by her sweet hubby that she was headed somewhere warm?? So she was the only one that brought her swimsuit. The hot tub was a popular hangout for the brave souls.

I did not go skiing with the majority, decided outlet mall shopping and a cozy lunch was more my speed. Nate did go and have a blast! He is an expert, you know. Then we headed to a very random, but super fun murder mystery dinner. PLEASE call me before you attended any dinner shows in a strip mall in Pigeon Forge*.

It was a wonderful weekend to kick off the 2010 year of turning 30! This week alone I have 2 more dear friends hitting the 30 mark! Yeah for all the 1980 babies!!
