Three-Zero

So, I turned the BIG 3-0 today. I woke up at 6:45 and was rubbing my sleepy eyes on my way to the bathroom and a cheerful husband says a loud "Welcome to the Club!" I was so tired that I didn't even comprehend that he was referring to my birthday and entering my 30's. Note to husband and others: Don't crack jokes in the morning and expect me to comprehend.

We had a rather eventful weekend. Friday I worked and when I got home we laid tile in our bathroom most of the night, taking a break only for dinner. I think I'll do a before /after post about our master bath once it's finished. We still want to do a new countertop, mirrors and light fixtures.

Saturday I had a Chamber meeting at 9:00 am . When I got home I made peanut butter pies (yum) for a band/orchestra party Scott had organized for Saturday evening. He had two of his buddies and band mates grilling ribs ALL day. We held it at a local children's home with a great recreation complex and pavilion and playground. We had a great time of food and fellowship. You know how us Baptists are - we love our potlucks!

Today I sang on the praise team at church (which means sound check at 8:00 am followed by two services at 9:30 and 11:00) Afterwards, the student ministry had rented two of the theaters at our local AMstar for an outreach event. The students invited friends for a private viewing of Prince Caspian: The Chronicles of Narnia. Since Scott works with the student bands, we were invited to come. I think we had over 500 kids at this event. What a great way to outreach! I highly recommend the movie- great imagery and symbolism. I got popcorn with butter since it was my birthday.

After the movie I had choir practice... my second soprano sisters sang Happy Birthday to me ! What a great ending to a great birthday. I am also the proud owner of a new ipod 80 GB. Don't ask me how I'm going to fill that up...
