And Then I Turned 29...

This year my birthday was especially special!  I got to share my day with my sweet nephew, Aaron, who was being baptized that day!  Early in the morning, Scott and I drove up to Victorville, followed soon after by the rest of my family.  Here's a pictures of Aaron with both sets of grandparents, and aunts.  His two uncles couldn't make it because Daniel lives in Utah and had to work and Evan is on a mission in Uganda, but we know they both would've loved to have been there, had circumstances permitted.  

After the baptism, we all headed to David and Melissa's house for lunch and birthday cake.
Although Aaron's birthday is on September 22nd, we celebrated together!  
I love sharing my birthday week with this cutie!

After the party had died down, Scott and I stayed a little longer and hung out with David and Melissa for awhile.  Then, we went to Northwoods Inn for dinner.  When we got to the restaurant, we discovered that the wait was nearly an hour, so we walked across the street and browsed a Halloween shop with some...ummmm...interesting costumes and then headed back to Northwoods for dinner.  That place is delicious!!!  They sang happy birthday to me at the restaurant in their unique style, which I love and then we had some yummy sherbet!
After dinner, I realized that we didn't actually ever get any birthday ice cream (sherbet is not real ice cream) and we stopped at a grocery store and got some peanut butter cup ice cream.  We went back to Scott's to eat ice cream and then just had a good time relaxing and enjoying each others' company.  This was seriously one of the best birthdays I've ever had because I spent it with the people that mean the most to me!  
I think 29 is going to be a good year!
