Well, as you know my BIG 30th birthday was last Saturday. I can't believe that I am actually 30 years old. For quite a few months I have been struggling with the fact that once I turn 30, I am officially OLD! I know it's not really that old but my fun and exciting 20's are over. So far since I have been 30 a couple things have happened. Good and bad. I'll start with the good. I finally got my crappy driveway fixed by Richmond. Any of you who have been watching KSL about peoples driveways know what I am talking about. However, I do feel like mine was way worse then anyone elses in the valley! Here are some before and after pictures. These before pictures were a long time ago so imagine my entire driveway looking like that!!!!

Anyway, that was probably the best birthday present anyone could've ever given me. Thanks Richmond! The night before my birthday B brought home a cute cake and ice cream for me. He knew the kids would love it. Caleb had been asking when my birthday party was going to start. It was cute. They were excited about the cake.
What is it about cake that makes kids so excited?
My cute visiting teachers are the best! They bought me a edible arrangement. I have always thought that those are the cutest ideas for a gift. I didn't want to eat it cause it was too cute! Thanks so much Tiff and Sarah!!!
My sweet mom took me shopping at my favorite place Tai Pan and arranged this cute arrangement for my front room. It's just what I wanted. She is awesome at decorating. We also have a tradition with in our family that we take the birthday girl out to breakfast. We went to Mimi's and had a fun time together. I love my sisters! Thanks mom, Kim, Jodi, Heidi, and Tiff!
My cute neighbor Kim made me this yummy little peanut butter cake. Isn't it cute? You're the best Kim!
My other friends Summer and Errin took me to get a pedicure for my birthday. I love spending time with them. Thanks for the great conversation and pretty toes. It was much needed!
Finally, B took me out to Rodizio Grill and to a movie. I love spending time with him. He is so wonderful. Our 10 year anniversary is next week and he will be out of town so, to celebrate my birthday and our anniversary we are spending the night in Park City with out my kids tonight. He's the best!
Here is the bad news about turning 30. I have been having neck problems and I've been going to a chiropractor. He couldn't help so, after going to an orthopedic specialist and having an MRI, he told me that I have a bulging disc, arthritis, bone spurs, and a few pinched nerves in my neck. I guess I couldn't expect my 30's to start off smooth. Hopefully physical therapy will help. Cross your fingers for me.
Other than that crappy news my birthday was awesome. Hopefully my next 10 years will be as fun and exciting!

Happy Birthday Amy !!!! Wow.....you have tons of people that love you ! Pedicures, edible goodies, breakfast, TWO cakes, AND a new driveway !! It sounds like you had a great day. We have some Richmond homes by us, and our friends just got their driveway redone, too. I would have been so mad if that happened to us. Have fun in Parkcity !!
Happy, happy birthday Amy! I hope you had a great one! So glad you were finally able to get your driveway re-done. Hopefully it doesn't start re-cracking, like ours has... ;)

I'm glad you had a great birthday. Yay on the new driveway! Not so good about your neck. Hopefully physical therapy will help.
Yeah I'm glad that your driveway is fixed. I saw it all tore up the other day and was excitted for you. Progress and success- even if it took a decade. Hope you guys have a great Anniversary.
Happy Birthday Amy! Sorry I'm seeing this late....I haven't been on the blog circuit much lately, but plan to make a big return. :)
The 30's are awesome! You'll love 'em.
Hi Amy, I found your blog through Trish's and wanted you to know how much I enjoyed your talk on Sunday, a good reminder for a new mom like me:). Plus I was heartened to see that Richmond has fixed your drive. We've been battling with them for over a year, and I'm hoping in the next couple of weeks that we will get some good news. Thanks again!

Happy Birthday! I am so glad that you had such a good time. Congrats on the 10 year anneversary! What an awesome milestone. You are great!
Happy B-day! 30 is nothin', girl! Just wait til you get to the mid-range 30s. It's a little frightening...that 40 is just looming...glaring at you. Weird. Glad your driveway got fixed, too.
Oh you are so cute..I hope you had a wonderful B-day!! I bet you are so glad you have your driveway fixed and your toes look beautiful!!
