This year for my birthday, Dusty wanted to treat me and my 3 best girlfriends. He sent us to the Kansas City Festival of Wine & Food. It was truly a wonderful evening. We got to get all dressed up and walk around and sip wine and eat food. My kind of night!
And, of course Kim had to get some kind of birthday gag in there somewhere. So, this was in my front yard, and I had a matching one taped to the back of my car!
Overall, I know age is just a number. Some people choose to live their lives according to that number. They choose to feel and act old because of that number. I am choosing to do the opposite. I want to live my life to the fullest and be the most physically active I can be for the shape my body is in at that moment in time. Not because my body is a certain number. We all know my maturity level isn't at 30 - and hopefully the rest of me isn't either!

Tim McGraw says it well:
I think I’ll take a moment, celebrate my age
The ending of an era and the turning of a page
Now it’s time to focus in on where I go from here
Lord have mercy on my next thirty years
Hey my next thirty years I’m gonna have some fun
Try to forget about all the crazy things I’ve done
Maybe now I’ve conquered all my adolescent fears
And I’ll do it better in my next thirty years
My next thirty years I’m gonna settle all the scores
Cry a little less, laugh a little more
Find a world of happiness without the hate and fear
Figure out just what I’m doing here
In my next thirty years
Oh my next thirty years, I’m gonna watch my weight
Eat a few more salads and not stay up so late
Drink a little lemonade and not so many beers
Maybe I’ll remember my next thirty years
My next thirty years will be the best years of my life
Raise a little family and hang out with my wife
Spend precious moments with the ones that I hold dear
Make up for lost time here
In my next thirty years In my next thirty years
The ending of an era and the turning of a page

In my next thirty years In my next thirty years

Happy Birthday! 30's aren't bad, I think we realize the older we get, that it really is how old you feel vs how old we are.
It was a great night, here's to the next 30! Wonder what C and I could come up with :)
Glad you had a great birthday!
I hope when I turn 30 I can look as good as you. ;). As for the Food and Wine Fest----thanks Dusty! That was awesome! I am lucky to have you girls.
