"The older the fiddler, the sweeter the tune."

So my birthday has passed and I was spoiled... I got some pretty amazing gifts that helped me forget that I am officially over the hump heading toward my 30's. But like my mom said I should be happy because, "Ohh, you can finally rent a car without paying extra!!" Thanks, mom. That was at the top of my to-do list! ;)

Some of my wonderful gifts included a half-day at The Hotel Monaco spa, a gorgeous veggie garden to grow all of my own goodies for cooking, a new journal, TWO cookbooks (I was very excited!), the apron I was dying for (pictures to come, it's just too cute not to share!), and a gift certificate to my favorite bookstore Tattered Cover. I don't even know what to do with all of these treats!! I even got some good ole' cash which go toward the iPhone purchase, something I have been anxiously awaiting!! 

One of my closest friends from California came out to share in the birthday festivities and the weekend was filled with more laughter to last a person a lifetime, it was such a blessing. Not only did I get to experience the interesting Casa Bonita but I also got to run around a water park all day like a little kid. We spent too much time on the patio and polished off a few too many bottles of champagne. (8 to be exact, for one weekend, my head still hurts thinking about it!)

So I just wanted to say thank you to every person who had a part in my special celebration, I am so very grateful. This weekend will wrap up the birthday celebrations with DPS taking me up to Beaver Creek for a weekend full of surprises and outdoor adventures, I am pumped!! Pictures and more soon!
