I turned 30 today!!! Wow…it took me a while to get it through my head but once I did it was great!!! Age is something to truly embrace…with it comes all the gifts that life has to give….all the memories…friends…family..all the loved ones that grace your life and intertwine themselves in your Heart & Soul.
So Sat. my friend Carlos threw Christina and I a birthday bash in DC!!!

It was such an awesome time!!! Shane had a lot of fun and Jon “Kelly’s” man came bearing gifts that Enna had helped pick out, she even wrapped the box!!! Oh so very cool!!! With some Diva sunglasses..and a hand knitted coffee cup cozy that I will have to share with everyone very soon!!! What an awesome way to go green!!!




It was a very beautiful evening in DC!!! Thank You Carlos!!!
Then today there was a “Knock, Knock, Knock” and at the door was my awesome man hiding behind these!!!

Notice the beautiful butterfly balloon!!! WOW!!!
He also had these….

Made my heart melt..as if that was not enough he had something very special…a Tawny Port that was symbolic of the weekend he whisked me away to Williamsburg and we had a very special time. It was all so sentimental…..
We then were getting read to go out to dinner when at the door was a delivery of flowers from my wonderful Mother & Father in Law!!! Yup…you guessed it SUNFLOWERS!!!!! AWESOME!!!!

I can’t wait to paint them!!! I have to say that on mother’s day as well they sent me the most beautiful letter….when Shane and I were opening the mail we spotted what we thought to be a card from them andwas surprized to find it was instead a letter so I started to read it out loud to him assuming it was for both of us…and I completely choked up while reading the incredibly deep words of love…I can’t express how much it meant to me and how deeply it touched my heart. To feel the warmth and loved packed in to that letter…it was simply wonderfully comforting.

Shane surprized me by taking me to one of my our favorite places!!! And they made this cute little number for me!!!

It was so pretty I almost did not want to mess it up eating it!!! But I DID:)
Oh I am so thankful for all my family and friends & my loving husband!!! XXOO the Only thing that could have made today anymore perfect was if Mazzy was physically still here to enjoy all of it…I know she is always in our hearts and her amazing spirit surounds us always….
Cheers!!!
