32......33

i don't know if i have ever celebrated my birthday with as much enthusiasm as i did this year. i was thrilled to be getting rid of '32'. estatic to be moving forward with the life plans i have for myself and my son. looking forward to possible career changes. anticipating new friendships and cherishing the old ones.
my celebrating began when my ridiculously handsome son woke up, sat straight up in bed and said.... "HAPPY BIRTHDAY MOMMY"..... imagine this face.....



those words..... and his little arms giving me a hug... the day could have ended on that note and it would have been fine by me.... but it gets better....
after standing in line at the dmv for two hours (thank you asshat in front of me who broke the machine)- i raced to school for "Family Day!!!"

..............arrived at work to find not one, but two birthday cakes..............

as if that wasn't a full day already....... i had dinner with a table full of friends and family at one of my favorite restaurants. after that.... the details are a bit blurry so here are some pics from the evening.....


one of my baby brothers


one of my favorite people in the whole world... lindsey


another spectacular girl who i was so excited to see

my daddy

just us girls


i have talented friends....


the random "O" face


i'm sure the converstaion was brilliant at this point... ha ha no pun intended


time for sara to go home.... note the eyes...


and the bday celebration didn't stop there.... (mainly because i demanded we celebrate my birth all weekend long) nevertheless.... we went to a concert at this fabulous outdoor venue. company was great, music was very cool but i think the camera had one too many margaritas......

Thank you for a wonderful birthday everyone. I love you all. Those that weren't there.... like you, you and you..... Next year.... you owe me double!!!!
