13 going on 30

Before we left for Florida my friend Amanda and her sister planned a little birthday dinner and cupcakes for my 30th. It was very good food and lots of fun. They refused pictures because they had been cleaning all day at their parents house, then slaving over this birthday shin-dig for me! What good friends:)

 When we got back from vacation I found out Sunday afternoon that apparently John and Penny-Mom were up to some birthday party planning while we were gone.  We went to Home Depot for some "things" then when we came back to the house it wasn't empty;) 

 Luckily, I don't think I was center of attention, not with precious little Zella around!!

 Penny Mom worked hard making a carrot cake and a carrot tree, and just about everything else carrot themed too, even a carrot bouquet, who ever knew there was such a thing, thank you so very much to two very special people in my life.

And I suppose I should close with saying that John also surprised me with a sewing machine for my birthday, so now I have NO more excuses for not getting little projects done. I'm pretty excited:)  I have to say turning 30 wasn't so bad after all...
