Another Year Wiser

Yup, it's that special day for me. Until this morning, I honestly wasn't able to work up much excitement for it. After Mike's recent b'day and our anniversary, I felt a little special occasioned out. Plus, most of my energy has gone to working full force on getting our house a little more organized and together for the parental visit this weekend (they only are up every couple of years it seems and I wanted the place to be as "finished" as possible).

The funny thing about birthdays, though, is that they are still kind of exciting. I woke up excited to get presents and begged Mike to give me one even though he hadn't wrapped it yet (a trainer for my bike - wahoo!). The celebration is up to him tonight and I'm sure he won't disappoint. All I know is that reservations are at 7. As long as cake is involved, I will be a happy girl! Plus, I've been contacted by tons of friends and family (you guys rock)...to know they're thinking of me is pretty darned awesome.
