30 something

Just a few weeks ago, I entered my 30's with a weekend of celebration planned by my sweet and amazing husband. Everything was a secret, beginning with dinner with the Reimer family, a surprise shopping trip with my mom and ending in a surprise party here at the house. It was so great and the best way I could think of to leave my 20s behind.

My actual birthday was even more special because as I turned 30, my baby boy turned 7 months and we dedicated him at church. It meant so much to me to do that, since we had Elias dedicated on Christopher's 30th. We had a pew full of guests, including the other Ammon family, Guy and Nana. Thanks to everyone for being there for us and being part of my special day!
