Forever 29...

Thank you to everyone for all of the birthday calls, messages cards and e-mails. I had a wonderful day with my family. I started the day (at 12:00 am) up late sewing. You know when you are reading a great book and you just cant put it down? It was kinda like that. I was working on this fab skirt and I just had to keep going. I did finally get to bed by 3 am. I was up and out the door to the dentist by 7:30. Probably not what most people want to do on their birthday but its exactly what I wanted to do. Recently I have developed a dark staining on some of my front teeth that completely creeps me out. The dentist could not figure out the cause of it as I am a smoker,but I rarely drink pop or coffee, and I do not use any of the mouth washes that she said could cause it. (Really it bothers me so much that if she would have said that it would go away if I didn't eat chocolate anymore, I would do it!) Anyways I am glad to say that it is removable an my teeth are white again! (ok~more like off white) Hopefully it does not come back anytime soon.

I spent the afternoon at the hair salon with Sena. We both got our hair cut and I got mine colored. Sena loves hers, me not so much. I went in asking for blonde and came out way darker than I was. (at least it covers my grey) I think I will be going back in next week for a fix.

We spent the evening at the Mall of America. We ate dinner at the Rainforest Cafe the kids thought that that was fun. Chad had mentioned that its kind of like being at Disney with all the action going on in there. Kristian of course told them that it was my birthday so they all came and sang to me~ he just wanted the free ice cream. We walked around for a bit and I went into all of my fav stores. We also walked around what started off being Camp Snoopy then changed to The Park, and now has become Nickelodeon. Rilynn though that was great even though we didn't actually go on any rides.

The best part of the day was when Rilynn first woke up in the morning and said "happy 29th birthday mom!" That's my girl!
