36? Say it isn't so!

Yes, another birthday has come and gone. They seem to come faster and faster each and every year. It was a good day, even though I wasn't feeling so good. In the morning, Xander came in and told me "Happy Birthday" that his daddy had been teaching him to say. After opening presents, Chris made blueberry pancakes for us all. Yummy! We spent the rest of the afternoon relaxing while Xander took his nap. After he woke up, we went to the Mall of America for a little shopping and dinner at the Rainforest Cafe. After we got home and Xander was tucked into bed, we got to play with my new birthday present - an iPod Shuffle! Thank you Chris, Xander, Linda and Jimmy for giving me such a neat gift. I know it will get used a lot! When we get the speakers set up in the living room, we will be groovin' to the tunes!
