Surprise 30th

So to finish off the month of April we have our other two birthdays. Today is Matt's 30th birthday and mine was yesterday (I only turned 29).  A couple of weeks ago I threw Matt a surprise party since he was turning the big 30. It was nice, it was just a open house so people just stopped by and visited for little bit. Only about half of the couples came so I was little bummed but enjoyed those that did show up. I made a German Chocolate cake which is Matt's favorite. There was also licorice, popcorn, nuts, and salt water taffy. It was all of his favorite snack foods. He was surprised and enjoyed himself. He has been taking it pretty hard turning 30 and hasn't wanted to except it. I don't think that it is that old but he feels like it is. 

My good friend Kasey also has a birthday this month so we both went out and got pedicures together and went shopping. It was a lot of fun! Matt got a new bike that he rides everyday to work and back. With gas the way it is we are trying to save money. I have even been walking Tyler to school when I can too. Matt also bought an orange tree that he has been wanting for years. I on the other hand just wanted my boys to get along for one day. (It didn't happen!) On our birthdays we got lots of cards, gifts, visits, treats,  and phone calls. I feel very loved to have so many good friends and family that love us. Since I had made Matt and cake earlier in the month I didn't do one for our birthdays. I had a chocolate muffin on my day and made  cinnamon rolls for Matt. Plus we had other goodies people had dropped by. We are going on a little getaway this next weekend to celebrate our special days. It will be nice, we need a break since Matt has been so busy with work and school since January. We enjoyed our birthdays and looking forward to many more to come!
