Birthday weekend

August 22/08
Im turning 30 in 2 days!!! That's right...30!!!!!! I have been dreading that age since I hit 19, and here it is sneaking up on me. It doesnt help that I still feel 22.
I have absolutely nothing planned this weekend except for a birthday supper at My parent's house(yummy) on Sunday.
So, I think I will take Si to go see a movie on the weekend, and hopefully get a lot of scrapping done.
To make things a litle better, I am happy to say I just won an phenomenal giveaway on Kandice Matsler's blog at www.kandicematsler.typepad.com In fact it is $300 worth of awesomeness.
That brought a huge smile to my face this morning...Im excited to see what will all be in that box

This has been an awesome week:)

We had a really busy and fun weekend.
