Can it be True????

Did Jill really turn 30?? Where has the time gone? I must admitt the thought of turning 30 seemed scary and depressing to me...but after my fun weekend with the kids and Corbin I realized I have everything I ever wanted at age 30!! I know it sounds silly but it truly is simple...a loving husband who I think still adores me and puts up with me, 2 beautiful kids who always teach me to be a better person, I have a roof over my head and food on the table and an amazing extended family who support me and care for me. So it is easy to see why 30 is just a number.

The birthday party started Saturday morning with a trip to VA Beach for the night. We enjoyed beautiful weather at the beach. We played outside on the beach..the kids even got into the water. Then we swam in the indoor pool for awhile and then headed out for dinner at Cheesecake Factory. It was a long wait and the kids were restless. Dallas ended up falling alseep on me all the way through dinner and Madie looked like she was totally out of it but not giving in. We left on Sunday afternoon and went to Williamsburg to The Great Wolf Lodge. It is an indoor waterpark with lots of water slides and a wave pool. It is a hotel to stay in as well. Dallas found a new passion for the "Flow Rider" It is a simulation ride with one continous wave that you can body board on. Dallas has a passion for being a surfer. Madie and Dallas also liked the wave pool. Corbin and I laid back in our lounge chairs and watched the kids play. On Monday I got breakfast in bed at the hotel followed by more waterpark fun. We left in the early afternoon and came back to Charlottesville were I got a pedicure (by myself). Then came home and got dressed up for the next surprise!!! The kids were in their p.j.'s so I knew that were staying at home and they told me a babysitter was coming over and April's boys were coming. So when the sitter got there we headed out to dinnner with April and Steve. Corbin got a Limo to pick us up and take us to The Melting Pot. We ate a yummy dinner and then came back to the house for cake and presents. It was such a great weekend!!! Thank you Corbin, Madie and Dallas for such a fun weekend.
