Today I am 33 years old.
Which, sounds... well, not precisely young, but not "the end of the world is drawing near old" - So... I guess I'll take it. Because really, if you don't feel your age, it's only a number, right? That coupled with the fact that I totally did 110 jumps on the pogo stick this weekend after a ten year hiatus from pogo-ing makes me downright youthful. And lest I forget about cruisin' on the pink Cadillac beach cruiser of a bike with a babe on my shoulders, I shall document it here. Oh, and there was the back hand spring.
Let's summarize...
Three reasons I am definitely not "actually" thirty-three -
1. Pogo stick
2. Bike with babe &
3. Birthday back handspring. Just a little something I do for myself to prove that I am not old and that this gal has still got it. (But if I'm honest, I literally saw a few stars on that last one but only because I dedicated myself to stellar form and that handspring was one to rival Nadia Comaneci... I am talking perfect ten material).
OK, true to form, RyGar with the loving help of my Mama & Daddy-o, carved out a birthday weekend which can only be known as epic. Which means that a small road trip to the land of delicious red dirt was in order. I visited my favorite hometown haunts. I got served my Mom's halibut, homemade fries & German chocolate cake. I shopped and saw my bestie. The weather delivered a full day of sun and sixty degree temps AND my kids & the hubs were just working the sandbox like rock stars.
See? Epic.
And thus begins my thirty-third birthday week, which promises to deliver even more of the good stuff. And since I'm a gal who loves all things alliteration, I feel like 33 has good mojo. Yes, it leaves a good taste in my mouth, that one.
Much like my weekend. :)

Happy Happy Birthday Blog Buddy! Looks like you know how to get the most out of a birthday. Birthday week? I declare it birthday MONTH! And congrats on the back handspring, wow. I couldn't do one of those even when I WAS young.
Happy Birthday!!! 33 is the new 23 right?! Cute pics
Happy Birthday Chica! I'm assuming Ryan forgot about your other bestie (hint: it's me!) when setting up this birthday adventure?? haha.
Alas after reading this, I'm afraid on my coming birthday I will be "the end of the world is drawing near old" insert tears....lots of tears!
A back handspring? As in on the ground back handspring, or trampoline time? Either way pretty impressive!
Also just love all your photos! Do you use your iphone or a fancy schmancy big camera?
forget about your birthday (which i did, sorry about that) but lets talk about whats really important here.
1. Ryan is wearing a UTAH shirt, which just makes him look more handsome i'd say.
2. you're wearing a red hot chili peppers shirt which makes you cooler then you already were.
3. you did a fetching back handspring. WTF!?
Glad you had a good birthday! That cake looks YUMMY!
