My Birthday

My birthday was last week.  As I get older every birthday seems to be more and more anti-climatic.  This year I had told Sam that I didn't want a present but just remember me in some other way.  The night before my birthday we got together with some friends and had a fabulous dinner and an amazing chocolate cake (thanks so much Chris--it totally lived up to everything).

And as you can see all the pictures I got were of my cake.  It's kinda hard to take pictures of yourself! :)
 This cake was a moist chocolate cake with a layer of dark chocolate filling and chocolate chips and all frosted in a chocolate buttercream--deliciousness!
As for the day of my actual birthday we cleaned the house and packed for our trip to Salt Lake.  We took off that afternoon and ate dinner with Sam's family and ended the night with games.  It was very nice but very normal.  

So here's to a year of being 31 and having a great time!

Julie, Happy Birthday!! The cake looked delicious. I have to agree with you about Birthdays being anti- climatic. It sounds like you made it wonderful, anyway. Love ya'
