Thirty, Flirty and Thriving

(Above title is a quote from one of my favorite movies- anyone else a fan like me?)

So my 30th birthday has come and gone and I have to say it was one of the best birthday/birthday weekends I can remember.

 On Saturday morning I got 30 roses from parents.

Saturday evening a friend took me out for dinner, drinks and a little dancing.  At the restaurant they brought out different desserts with candles on them and champagne- it was very nice!  I didn't take a picture of that though, which I can't believe... but I'll still remember it.

Sunday afternoon I celebrated with my family.  My dad made my favorite meal and we all went over to my aunt's house to eat. Spencer got a little cranky when she found out mac n' cheese wasn't on the birthday menu!

 

Yes, that's 30 candles!

 And yes, I did blow out every single one of them!  I haven't missed a year yet :)  Isn't that just the cutest picture of me, ever? ha!

My mom ordered me cupcakes from Georgetown Cupcake- of TLC's DC Cupcake- and they were SO good.  Definitely the best cupcake I've ever had, so all the hype is must be true because they were amazing.

I couldn't have asked for a better birthday and I'm just so grateful for everything.  I really am a lucky, lucky girl
