Liz's 40th

I had a great 40th birthday!  I woke up to the house lit up in Christmas lights with lights lining the balcony and hanging decorations from the walls, doors, fans.  30+ home-made cards from the girls and the kitchen dressed in lights with "Happy Birthday Mom" written on the counter.  It was a great day full of lots of eating.  My friends took me out for Thai food at lunch Thursday and another group took me to an Indian food buffet on Friday.  Jeff had my favorite - carrot cake at home.  It was a great day!  While technically I don't really mind aging, the only real benefit I can see currently about being 40 is that Morgan and Bella will be less confused by age as I've been talking a lot about being 39 and turning 40, that they insist on telling all strangers, "Hey my Mom is 49!"  Remind me never to tell them my weight!  :-)  I guess, the other huge benefit of a big birthday is getting in touch with old friends!  I was happy to see one of my college roommates Cheryl in DC earlier this month and connect with lots of friends on FB. 

My order number, on my 40th birthday, not planned!
