Birthday Time

On Wed Laura and I turned 30, woo hoo! We kind of celebrated with our husbands last weekend because we actually got to have a date night! Then the day before our b-day we got to do a girls night and went to get ice cream and go to the movies with some friends. Nice to get out of the house. Then on our actual birthday we had a really fun play date at our friend Suzanne's house. I didn't get pictures of all the kids, but I got a few of some of the kids.



Here are Ben and Cooper playing.





Baby Elise, isn't she adorable?





Emily, Elizabeth, and Ben playing with Jake's fun toys!







After the playdate we went to the Cheesecake factory with my parents for lunch. It was a surprise that my dad was able to come, so that was fun!

Here are the kids waiting for a table. All looking at once! (at Laura though, not me :))







I had to put all of these because Cooper is being such a stinker in them! The first picture I tried to get of Cooper and me.





another one





finally, a smile! A fake smile, but still, it's a smile!





Here are the kids with Gpa at lunch.



Cooper enjoying the ice cream at lunch.

Ryan had a very nice dessert and dinner planned for me, along with some great gifts. It was a great b-day!

Yay! Happy birthday! Did you get my message? I'm so glad you had such a great birthday since it was a big one. Sounds like you did lots of FUN celebrating!! I was looking at your baby counter and I realized that I gave birth to Maya and Nolan at 37 weeks and 3 days...so that's TOMORROW for you! Are you ready? Hee hee!!
