30 years? Huh? Really...nah.

So last week was it. I celebrated my...cough...gag...30th birthday ;). Since it is so close to Valentines Day we had to spread out the celebration over 2 weekends. My bday gift was to take the Bourbon trail in Kentucky. We started at the Chapeze House in Bardstown KY. http://www.chapezehouse.com/ Man oh man...if you go there plan to DRINK and EAT and EAT and EAT. My goodness the food was fantastic. The Colonel who runs the place has been on food network, the discovery channel, and has cooked with Paula Dean. Joe bought me his cookbook as we left. I am anxious to try some recipes!!
So tomorrow he is taking me to a chain restaurant called Ruth's Chris. http://www.ruthschris.com/We have never been to one, but I hear they are fantastic. I am dying for some lobster tail myself :)
The kids are as cute as ever. I finally got a prescription issue fixed for Joe and Katie, and Joe is finally sleeping better because of it. Joe also lost his second tooth. He was super proud! And luckily we didn't lose that one so the tooth fairy got to keep it ;). Garrett is still cute ole Garrett. He is such a home body and shy. We are trying to get him to stay with child care during some outings just because we feel he needs a little more social interaction. The boy loves his family..we can't be too upset about that. And Bug is stinkin cute as well. Still tiny as she fit in 6-9 month clothing. We don't give give the little stinker enough credit. We see her and assume she can do was a 9 month old does but no there really is a 16 month old mind just a ticking away. If she sees the boys get their jackets and shoes she will toddle over and get hers. You can also tell her to put something in the trash and she will or "close it" be it a door or the refrigerator and she will do that too. It really is precious.
In other news...we got another offer on the TN house. Joe and I are taking this very cautiously because we were burned last time with the back out 10 days before closing. But we are happy and grateful none the less. Hope everyone is staying warm!
