Today is my Birthday...I'll Never be 29 Again!

Well today was my birthday and like it or not it's so long to my twenties! Hopefully I've learned something from life up to now and maybe my thirties will be smooth sailing! Anyways, I really  celebrated my birthday last night and then just spent the day shopping and hanging out just me and my daughter. Last night my parents took me out for pizza and chicken wings and we were joined by my sister, her hubby and my niece and nephew. We had a good time eating and laughing and then went to my sisters afterwards for ice cream cake. We relit the candles and sang Happy Birthday at least three times because my daughter was so impressed with the song and the candles! Here are some pics from my birthday bash last night!

Happy Birthday, Carrie! I laughed about Callie getting to see you do the Happy Birthday thing three times! That's the life.
Don't mourn the loss of your 20s....there's so much ahead!
Believe me...I outta know!

Happy belated birthday, Carrie!

Carrie, Happy belated birthday and I hope the "30s" are very good to you. I found that the 30 to 40 years (yes I am old) was when I did most of my real "growing up"!
Toni V. Jan 22, 2008, 11:25pm EST
Looks like I'm a day late. Happy Birthday!!!
Ruth Luce Jan 23, 2008, 2:08am EST
Oh, so sorry to be late, hopefully you are still celebrating!! Does look like you had a wonderful birthday indeed, and don't you worry a bit, your life will truly begin at 40, the best is yet to be!!! (Though, technically, we can be 29 just as long as we want to!)
Todd .. Jan 23, 2008, 11:44am EST

William M. Jan 23, 2008, 4:42pm EST
Great. Good photos. Be like some women and stay 29 for 10 years or so.
Carrie O. Jan 23, 2008, 7:58pm EST
Thanks for the belated birthday wishes Sue, Bob, Toni, Ruth, Cat Man, Kathy, Kylee and William! Much appreciated!

I am concerned that I have turned 30 though since my Mom still claims to be 29...
Kimber L. Jan 23, 2008, 10:50pm EST
That is so cool. I love the photo essay. It looks like you had a lot of fun! I love the photos too. The one of you blowing out the candles with your daughter in your lap that is a great photo of the two of you! You are really beautiful!!! I am happy you had a good day!
Welcome to 30!!! It's not nearly as bad as people dread it being!
But I'm not doing the "F" word...if Jack Benny could be 39 forever
so can I!!!

Happy Birthday CArrie!!!
Jennifer P. Jan 24, 2008, 9:45pm EST
