33 Years Old...Seriously?

Well, it's my birthday. AGAIN. This just keeps happening. :-) I have had a lovely day...Colin and I went out to lunch and spent the afternoon at the park. I have had the most wonderful time reading all of the endless birthday wishes on Facebook and feeling like the princess of the day. To top things off, an old friend from my drill team days had her baby girl today! I think she picked the perfect day to be born. hehe!

Jer had a random day off yesterday, so we took Colin back to the botanic gardens for a walk. We love it there and Colin has such a great time exploring. He will not leave his shoes on and loves finding ways to get off the beaten path. During one such trek behind the scenes of the gardens, we stumbled onto a huge bush full of honeysuckle. The scent struck me immediately as we rounded the corner and I was taken back to my childhood. The fence in my parents backyard filled up with them every year and I would spend hours out there pulling the pods apart and tasting the sweet juice. We showed Colin how to do it and he was very impressed! Here he is taking his very first sip!

Once we got home from the gardens, Jer took over with Colin and I headed out for my birthday present...a pedicure! BLISS! I really can't think of a better gift! It is very hard to spoil yourself when you are the stay at home mother of a two year old, so that hour in the salon is just the best thing ever. I am heading to Tyler tomorrow for a weekend at my parents house. Mert and Cory are having a Kentucky Derby party at their house on Saturday, which I will get to attend. Meredith is making me wear a giant hat for the party, so there ought to be some amusing pictures to come. :-) I will sign off with this last picture of Colin...his face is cracking me up here. You can tell he is up to no good!
