He's Finally 30!

Well at long last I am no longer married to a twenty year old. I don't often get the chance to be the one cracking "old" jokes, so I may revel in this occassion a little too much. Yes I am older, but still I just gotta rub it in a little. Some trips down memory lane, this is Chris at 19! Doesn't he look like a baby! We actually picked up my wedding dress on that trip.








And now a decade later!





We took the kids down to Moab to go camping for Chris' B-Day and we all had a blast. We tried to camp but a sudden rainstorm freaked us out when we arrived so we hurried and made hotel reservations, then the rain stopped an hour later. It sprinkled during the night on Saturday, but that was about it. We wished we wouldn't have jumped the gun on a hotel, but that storm came so hard and fast, and while Chris was calling around most hotels only had a few rooms left! The rest of the trip was beautiful. We did some easy hikes, took a hummer ride and had dutch oven chocolate cherry cobbler on the bank of the colorado river for his "Birthday Cake." We figured a campfire would be more appropriate instead of candles, because lets face it it's about the same effect at his age (JK). I'm glad we got away though, with soccer and t-ball games on the way camping may be a little tough for a while. If you want pics of the rest of the party go here.
