My dear husband and two sons :) got me this pretty necklace for my birthday. This is the boys' birthstone - Citrine. Yes, just one birthstone for both of them rather than one for each - gotta be able to buy diapers for them! :)

So, yes, it is my birthday. I am 30. I have no problem sharing my age, what's the point in trying to keep it a secret? I'm not thrilled about my age, but there's no reason to hide it. I am having a very nice day so far. Mike brought me breakfast from McDonald's, the boys and I visited Mike at work and then took a walk, and it's such a gorgeous day that we sat outside on a blanket for a bit - I think the boys enjoyed that. Now they are taking a nap and I am enjoying that. :) I am remembering that last year the weather was beautiful on my birthday as well, and I got to spend the day with my hubby planting celery. We had just found out about a week before that we were pregnant, and still didn't know at that point that it was twins! My how things can change in a year.

I am so thankful for the wonderful pregnancy that I had. It was so great that I actually miss it now. :) I'm indescribably thankful for my two beautiful sons and loving husband. I am grateful for all our family and friends that have supported us through this major life event. I could go on and on about what I am thankful for... I guess I'll just sum it up by thanking the Lord for blessing me in so many ways - most importantly, His gift of salvation.

Yesterday I took Macy in to the groomers for a spring haircut. I really should have taken before and after pics, she looks like a completely different dog! They put a bow in her hair, which totally does not fit her personality and it didn't last long, but I managed to get a pic nonetheless.
