The first weekend in January we headed to Iowa to celebrate Christmas with Jeff’s Grandma Kay and his many aunts, uncles and cousins. We always have a lot of fun and are far too spoiled and this year was no exception. Its always pretty crazy and crowded during present opening time but I got a few pictures this year.
After present opening, the plan was for all the cousins to go play paintball. I had never played before and kind of forgot about the paintball plan, so I didn’t really pack appropriate clothes. I almost wussed out and stayed back with the kids, but decided to suck it up and give it a try. It ended up being really fun but getting hit hurt a bit more than the “rubber band snap” level of pain I was promised. After paintball we headed back to Jeff’s grandma’s to pick up the kids and I was surprised with a birthday cake and we then headed to Jeff’s aunt Diane’s house for some 30th birthday celebrations!

Ok ok ok-sooo I just re-realized that in the mass chaos of my life I have forgotten to mail you a 30th birthday surprise :-). Sooo I will hop on that task-please forgive me tons! Love and miss you and happy 30th again :-)
I think that it must be already in the mail right next to my 29th birthday surprise for you! :) Damn the post office!
Why are our birthdays at such a crappy time of the year? One of these years we WILL say "screw it all!" and take a girls trip somewhere fun (and without husbands or kiddos) despite the chaos!!
