Happy Birthday to me!

My 31st birthday came and went but not without having an excellent day! We started out the day with the idea of going to the Taste of Colorado. However, Matt didn't get home from school until 1:20 and that was too late to go eat lunch especially if we were going to have a special dinner (wink, wink). So instead we went to the zoo for the afternoon. It was quite pleasant as it wasn't too crowded. We also got to see a lot of the animals up and moving around because it was close to feeding time for them. My favorite was the Tiger. We got to see it up close and it was HUGE! (I sound like a Dora episode.) After the zoo we stopped at the store where Matt got some lobsters for dinner. The girls thought this was pretty cool as they had a couple of rare pets for a little while. I was a little concerned about how they would react when they found out that we would be eating their "pets" but they didn't seem to mind at all. However, after trying it, they did not like the texture and so in the end Matt and I had lobster and the girls had rice and vegetables. It was a great birthday as I have officially entered into my 30s.
