Sara's Getting Old

So, I turned 27 last week. Still not sure how I feel about that. I'm still wondering why I can't just stay 25 for about 7 years and then skip to being 30 for a while. :) My birthday was really nice. Jeremy skipped a few classes to spend more time with me that day. He even found a super nice friend to watch the kids so we could go out to eat. We ate at TGI Friday's and it was really good.





For my birthday I decided I wanted to paint the basement. We've been meaning to do this since we moved in 8 months ago, and just now got around to it. It was pretty crazy trying to get all the stuff we needed, and a little crazier while we waited to see if our landlady was okay with us painting one wall an accent color (not necessarily a light accent, either) with the paint we had already bought. It turned out nicely though, I think, and someday soon you can see the "after" pictures. Here is a "before" picture, showcasing the one non-brick wall and all it's cute paint patches that don't match...
Last, but most definitely not least, here is what Jeremy got me for my birthday. Because he's really cool like that and somehow can surprise me really well, though I'm absolutely worthless at surprising him.


Yes, I'm loving it!

Wait til you actually turn thirty... my husband pointed out that twenty-seven is the most syllables (four) that you've ever been and so should be regarded as an achievement!!
