Now I Round Up to 40

When I turned 25 my brother Scott, who is 4 years older than me, told me that now my age rounds up to 30. Well I didn't mind that and my 30's have been great! So when i realized I'd be 35, I often still see myself as a 20 year old, I realized I round up to 40 now! That's fine with me: BRING IT!!

My birthday can take on many different faces. Most often I get a few days of celebrating in, mostly because I plan all the events around here so I can plan what I want and when I want it. Monday was my 35th birthday, but you know it started before Monday.

Saturday night we went out to eat with the boys and we laughed like crazy! Nights that that remind me how much I just adore my family.

Sunday we went to the shooting range with my father-in-law. I shot a few new guns and hit the bulleye!!

Monday my mom, grandmother and father-in-law came over for cake and presents. Presents were fun! I got money, money, money, which I have already spent some on fabric and patterns- *smile* and from my mom: thread!!

I asked Chris if I was officially in my mid-30's (I turned 34 on Sunday). He said it's debatable but next year will be mid-30's for sure. So, I think you have one more year before rounding up to 40. Isn't it funny how we don't mind getting older? Maybe because we still feel like kids?
