THIRTY!

That's right folks, tomorrow...I am 30! Yippee for me! Mom and I were talking tonight about how she was 30 when she had me! ;-) I always liked that because it was easy for me to figure out how old she was. Zach can do the same!

30 things I am thankful for: (don't pay too much attention to the order after like #5, I just put things down as they came to me!)
1) My family...Matt, Zachary, our parents, siblings, etc! With all the crazies in the world, we got some pretty good family members!
2) Matt...So blessed to have a husband who does his best to spoil me when he can.
3) ZACHARY! yes, he gets his own. He can make me smile in a way I never knew existed.
4) Esther and Max...my first children. They got me through some tough times. And they love you unconditionally!
5) My friends....my girlfriends are my sisters! No matter what we are going through, we are always there for each other to support and love and get through it!!
6) My job. Yeah, even though I don't like it now, I do appreciate the company I work for and the benefits they give us.
7) A roof over our heads
8) A country that allows us the freedoms that we have
9) 3 great-grandmas for Zach, that is pretty cool!
10) 5 grandparents who spoil Z man!
11) Ice cream..especially the new Fat Free Breyer's. Ok, so its not Ben & Jerry's, but its pretty good for Fat Free
12) Good wine......
13) CHEESE!
14) Pictures...they remind me of good memories

22) Inside jokes
23) Old friends
24) Good TV
