This week is my thirtieth birthday! I made it! I am really excited for it now. I was kind of depressed about not being in my twenties anymore, but really age is just a number.

The plans go:

Birthday Dinner With Mike

Drive to Vegas and Have Sushi First Thing

Temple

A Buffet Birthday Lunch With The Family

Mount Charleston

Go To The Strip

Stay At Mandalay Bay Two Nights

Lay Out and Drink Pina Coladas

Play In The Lazy River

Hike/ Bike Ride Red Rock

Go See Lion King

Have a Girl’s Day With My Sister

Drive Back to Cruces

Go To IKEA With My Mom

I am such a lucky girl! I am so glad I can spend my birthday with all my family and friends!

Mike and I just realized that at this moment, we are the only husband and wife couple to have first place standings. We love our mountain biking! Ha Ha

So my birthday is looming up on me and this one is a big deal to me. I will be turning 30 this year! No more 20’s! It’s bittersweet. I really can say that my life so far as been amazing. I really have had great opportunities and it gets me excited to see what the next thirty years will bring!

I hope in the next thirty years I can: 1) raise a family, 2) get a dog, 3) take more college classes, 4) go on amazing vacations with my husband, 4) retire from teaching and write books, 5) teach adults or become a nurse, 6) enjoy my family, 7) improve my mountain bike skills, 8) live near a beach, 9) keep my husband loving me, and 10) live happily ever after.

Next stop: 60 years old!
