I can’t believe that I turned 33 today, wow time sure does fly. My blog buddy Nicole from Mother Mother Oceanis also celebrating a birthday today. John, Sofia and I were invited to a fun playdate with our China travel group today. The kids are all getting so big. It has been almost 7 mos. since we last got together. We had so much fun catching up with the families we traveled with. I love getting together with them and the day could not have been any better. John, Sofia and I then went out for Japanese Steakhouse tonight and of course we always love that. It’s one of our favorite places to have dinner.I also received a wonderful b-day gift from John. He bought me a Canon Speedlite 430EX II hot shoe flash. I actually received it a few weeks ago. I have enjoyed learning the ins and outs of it. I have also been reinstalling my Vista Operating System. Had to clean all the programs off my computer as well as everything else. It is working better now, but I am still loading programs back on…ARGH! Hopefully I can get some photos posted soon and do some blog reading this weekend. Right now, I just want to curl up in front of the fireplace and relax.
