30th Birthday Weekend

As I sit and reflect over all the events that took place around my 30th birthday, I am floored. My friends and family went ABOVE and BEYOND to make this a special birthday for me. I have some amazing people in my life for sure!

Saturday morning, I met with my running peeps for a 14 mile run.

I was greeted by Kelli who put this glow necklace on me as well as a button that said “Kiss Me! It’s my Birthday!” Hah!

We did get rained on, but after the rain was another gorgeous rainbow!

 

Birthday kisses!

I could not believe everything that my friends did for me! I love you guys!!! :0)

   

Sunday night, two of my long time friends met with me for dinner at Olive Garden! :0)

I love these girls!

Monday morning, I woke up a 30 year old!

My husband worked nights the night before so he brought home breakfast from Cracker Barrel! Yummy Blueberry pancakes!

I arrived at work to another surprise! My crazy co-workers posted baby pictures of me in several spots throughout the department! I was so shocked that I forgot to clock in! Hah!  They also bought lunch for me from O’Charleys! They are awesome!

After work, I was told that I needed to run a mile for every year of my age. I had to stop at 3 miles. 30 seemed a bit much! Ah well!

My parents took me out to eat at a Lebanese place for dinner! The food was awesome! I will definitely be back….

After dinner, we opened presents and had cake.

I received a Mary Poppins Precious Moments figurine from my parents…..

   

….and the Hunger Games Trilogy Hardback set from my husband! He also let me pick out a waterproof, shockproof, etc camera for races! I get to test it out for the first time in October so we’ll see how it lives up! :0)

What a whirlwind of a weekend! I am so blessed and I have the best friends/family ever!! :0) Turning 30 isn’t so bad after all! (But I wasn’t worried…it’s just another number and you are only as young as you feel! If that’s the case, I must be 23 years old….) :D
