I can't believe I forgot to post this....

So, I never posted pics from my birthday weekend. 

As I mentioned in a post below....I turned 30 on Dec 27th. On January 3rd, me and a few of my good friends: Katie, Katie, Honi, Tahsha and Myself stayed at the Embassy suites over night. It was just to get away from our kids and have a super fun girls night out...I wish I could have afforded to pay for more rooms so more of my friends could have come..but Steve only let me pay for one room. 
We met at the hotel around 5pm and got ready to go for dinner. We took a tonne of stupid but fun self portraits and then we headed to bridgeport and ate at California pizza kitchen...

Afterwards we came back to the hotel and went in the hot tub  and pool til about 1am....we were then up til 5am talking!!! Actually Katie T and Katie H were gabbing and I was barely keeping my ears open (eyes were definitely shut!) to listen to their hilarious conversation. Poor Tahsha was TRYING to get some sleep in the living room so she could go to work at 9am!

I think one of the funniest moments was having a doggie paddle race across the pool with Katie...and then when all 5 of us raced, Honi was swimming SO fast!! (doing the doggie paddle remember) and Katie T yells out "what the heck, you're like a freaking labradore!"....I just about drown I laughed so hard and had to reach for the ledge of the pool before I went under ...I'll never forget that!

the next morning we had our yummy "made to order" continental breakfast!! I didn't even know hotels did that?? then we met at Mothers restaurant with the rest of my friends for a late breakfast early lunch. It was so much fun! I love ALL my friends so much. I'm very blessed!!
So...Happy late 30th to me!. So far, 30 isn't bad......I only feel 28.
