turning 27

we like to drag birthdays out around here ... so it started tuesday when case brought home this beauty ...

the white one. an iphone 3gs. because my other iphone stop working when i dropped it, and we were up for a free upgrade. of course if wasn't free, but it was more than 50% off. SWEET! so for the remainder of this post, all pictures and videos are from said phone, in celebration of it's amazing capabilities. i mean seriously, how much does it ROCK that my phone has a camcorder?!?!?! (a lot. "a lot" is the answer)

wednesday i got my hairs cut with the money casey's mom sent.hairscut by you.
which was obviously VERY MUCH needed.

then thursday, THE birthday, we just kind of hung out. 

    

and gwen had piggy tails for the FIRST TIME EVER!! kinda made my day ...
piggy tails by you.

friday was supposed to be beach day, but we were SO tired. still recovering from our illnesses a bit, i guess. so we slept instead ... a nap a day keeps the grumpies away!
y a a a w n by you.   night night addi by you.

saturday we slept in, well, as much as the girls wanted us to. 
good morning by you.   wake up call! by you.

eye booger queen by you.
addi always makes sure we don't have any eye boogers ...

reading gwen by you.
and gwen likes to read casey's books on how to keep a proper aquarium ...  ??

then we took the bus to kaneohe. we've always wanted to take the bus (can you believe we've never taken the bus!! as a family, i mean...) so we did! and we got free ColdStone for my birthday and all shared it, and we walked around the mall and played and did absolutely nothing important. 

i guess i was so busy with the girls on the bus that i didn't get any videos or pictures ... sad. but i swear it really happened!!

we also had a BBQ with friends saturday and a family picnic at the park sunday, but i used my real camera for those pics. so in keeping with the iPhone-pic-post theme (and because addi just woke up and really really really wants to "go paygownd shings"), i'm done.

happy birthday to me!

ps. just realized the last 4 pics weren't iPhone pics ... oops. you get the point.

ash ... nope, i feel young. i feel ... empowered by the decades i have left to live. and the fact that i'm closer in age to my children than to my parents. that rocks.
