Despite a change of plans and me not feeling my best, it turned out to be a nice weekend. Aaron and Jake went out Friday night to do some birthday shopping and Mr. Softy (aka Dad) gave in and bought Jake a skateboard. He's been asking for one for seriously a year. He loves watching the guys at the skate park. They also bought Tyler a Hot Wheels scooter. Aaron felt so bad because he had planned this great "birthday get-away" for me. We were supposed to go to Hotel Del Coronado for 2 nights and go shopping- for my birthday gift. But because of my mom getting sick and some other things, it just didn't end up happening. So he was left with no birthday plans- poor guys! It worked out fine because I felt terrible on Saturday and preferred to kinda lay around anyway. I got to sleep in and they made me my favorite breakfast, waffles and strawberries and then opened some fun presents. Then we just hung out during the day and that night Aaron and I went out to sushi and then to see The Invasion- which by the way was SOOO good (if you like scary movies, I do, do you??) It ended up being a very nice birthday and I don't feel like I'm 30! Don't worry, I'm not going to forget about that trip to San Diego, we'll go when I'm feeling a little more perky.
Then on Sunday we went to church and then headed down to OC for a wienie roast at the beach with my family. My gma is visiting from N. CA and my cousin and his wife were visiting from Colorado. It was a nice day and it was fun to hang out. By the way, I'm feeling better! I think the combo of new medication/Unisom is doing the trick, although it makes me extremely tired. I'll take tired any day over feeling nauseous!
Our sensor light went on Friday night and this is what we found outside our window!

All my birthday cards! I know it's kinda silly, but I love to "display" my cards- it makes me feel SO loved!! Try it!

It sounds like you had a good weekend considering it didn't go as planned. I'm so relieved that you are feeling better. I really loved the picture of the opossum. That is funny. Addie on the skateboard was so stinking cute!
