Yep I’m 30 now – crazy.  I had actually forgotten I was turning 30 and was pretty excited about my birthday until my mom gave me her card with a huge 30 on the front.  Then I was like “oh yeah - uh.”  Okay so it wasn’t that bad…the flu shot I got today was worse…well not the actual shot, but now my arm is sore.  But anyway.

So Luke got back at me for vandalizing his car. See ‘Things get Crazy When Husband Turns 30.’ As you can see from the picture comparison…he did a much better job!

My birthday landed on a Sunday and so when I got to church that morning I just happened to park in the spot directly in front of the church doors.   Luke was helping out in children’s church so while I was in church he snuck out and ‘hired’ a high schooler to help him ‘get’ my car.  Not just any high schooler – the Pastor’s daughter, Alyssa.  So technically Luke and Alyssa vandalized my car for my birthday. hehe  I think that’s pretty funny.

Below is a picture of me and Alyssa…the pastor’s daughter.

My parents took us to Olive Garden for my birthday – yummy.  And they of course had the waiter’s sing to me.  Luke had taken Alyssa for a walk so they missed it, but my mom took pictures. :) 

Oh and the night before my birthday my parents surprised me with a strawberry boston cream cake…ymmm.

Yep, so that’s it – I’m the big three oh  - as Jake would say.

Oh so speaking of “flirty and thriving.”  Luke watched the kids for me so I could run to the grocery store the other day and while I was there I had to ask where something was and the box boy who helped me totally flirted with me. I guess he’ll be surprised when he sees me in there next time with my two kids!  And, even funnier - a few months ago Luke and I were driving on the freeway these guy drove past me and checked me out AND Luke was sitting in the passenger seat (which when they noticed him they totally sped away) and I’m pretty sure Alyssa was in the car with us too!  Luke was like, wow, so that’s what it’s like to get checked out. lol
