I cannot believe my 30th birthday has already come and gone....I am officially IN MY 30'S!!!!! To some this may not be frightening, but it sure is for me. This birthday was amazing, I pretty much had a 3 week celebration, which was great because it dulled the pain a little of all the new wrinkles sprouting up on my forehead, and alievated some of the embarrassment of my newly sagging bum...hehe. I rang in the new decade in Paris, the city of lights, a place I have always wanted to go. It was incredible and I am so grateful to have had this experience. There are a million pictures and it was really hard to narrow down which ones to share....but here is a small sampling of my trip.

This is the entrance to the catacombs....this was my favorite part of the trip. Partly because it was so different from anything I have seen in my life. After looking at thousand works of art and different buildings, it was fun to switch it up a bit.

This is the Thinker from the Rodin Museum, another one of my favorite excursions. Rodin is my favorite sculptor, seeing his art in this garden was amazing. It is a very small museum, but well worth the visit. My friend, Sam, bought me the book end replicas for Christmas a couple of years ago, it was great to see the sculpture in person.
Getting a blessing from one of my favorite authors, Victor Hugo......hopefully he blessed me with wisdom and youth!!!!!!!!!!!

I look quite insignificant!
