    Watching this while baking sourdough cinnamon rolls for my neighbor who just had a baby while half my kids are doing their homeschool work and the other half is making mud pies outside. It feels unreal sometimes. What a blessed life to be a mom !

    I loved the Christian music in your video. The picnic looked so amazing and what a joy to have such wonderful friends. I have so much fun watching your videos. I am a grandma, so love seeing your children grow. Mine are all adults now.

    I love how you are celebrating each other's birthdays! Restaurants are so expensive now. Having it at home is brilliant. You are likely having a better meal and a lot more fun than you could have in a restaurant. You are so fortunate to have such a lovely group of like-minded friends to do this with. Blessings, Janell

    Love Skip Bo! Your explanation of your friends’ 30th birthdays and how you go around and give genuine compliments for each one was so sweet and made my eyes swell with tears. What precious times and memories to look back on!❤

    I just celebrated my 40th bday. My friends threw a "Downton Abbey" tea party for me. You wouldn't have to use the TV show theme. They decorated with China sets (that we never get to use) and fresh flowers everywhere. They had dollar tree frames spray painted gold with pictures of all us in them. They got fake pearls and tiaras/headbands from Shein online and we all felt like countesses, lol. So fun. 👑👸

    My friends and I love celebrating our birthdays almost every year, not just milestones. Last year for mine they had a lunch at someones home and another girl gave a watercolor tutorial. We’ve done small floral arrangement tutorials as well for similar gatherings. Most importantly we just celebrate life and friendship! Asking good questions and sharing encouragement I love that you’re doing this too! Friendship among women is so special and is to be treasured!
    One thing we’ve found helpful is to merge a couple friends together by proximity to birth dates. And gifts aren’t expected!

    Why do they play such loud music at restaurants????

    Loved the realness in this video but mostly that it turned out on a joyful note! I can't wear perfume but I've been using rosewater spray when I go out. It's light so I'm not sure how long it actually lingers. I don't usually like floral scents but it doesn't bother me. The pink ballerina skirt is beautiful on you and I would wear it with a t-shirt. The shirt you had on was actually perfect. Vonnie knows what she's talking about. Wear the princess skirt of course! lol

    Skip Bo is great for learning number recongnition for kids! Another favorite with my grandchildren aged 4 and 6 is a card game called Blink. It is fast moving and no reading required. :)

    This was so fun. Soaking in the spring vibes while freezing in “sunny Socal”! Skip Bo was my parents’ favorite game to play in their retirement years. They played, without fail, every morning. Mom beat Dad every time, but he willingly stuck with the morning routine!

    Okay I’m a couple years older and I’m even obsessed with that pink skirt! It reminds me of one of Nicole Kidman’s looks in the remake of Bewitched! She wears a blue sweater with a white tulle skirt like that and I always thought it was so elegant and classy!

    What a lovely vlog. Thank you for sharing your life, even when you were not feeling 100% about it in the beginning. You cannot help but supply optimism, even when you're a bit "off". I love seeing you live such an authentic, intentional life and you always make me happy. ❤. (Miller is really good with that spoon!). Lol
    You looked lovely in your princess dress! They're not just for Vonnie! So nostalgic watching family games! We played the sme ones along with rummy cube, canasta and boggle! Never lose sight of your bliss...

    I'm 74 and almost all my friends are in their 70's or 80's. We still love to have a party at one of our homes, eat , make as much noise as we please, give each other a hug if we feel like it. Restaurants have gotten so expensive and we are all retired on fixed incomes so it is better to be at someones house. We sort of made a rule that whoever's house we are at does not cook anything - after all that person has to clean, set things up etc - so the rest of us bring all the food & drinks.

    Loved this video Megan!! The outfit with the pink skirt and blazer was amazing!!!! You looked like a model! If the next 30th birthday is in April, how about something to do with April Showers/Easter.....everyone brings a parasol or umbrella for the "showers" and wears a pretty Easter bonnet or hat. You could have tulips, daffodils, spring type flowers. Everything "spring" themed. Your circle of girls looks so fun. I belong to a wonderful group of friends and very very sadly, a little over a year ago, 2 of our girls passed away unexpectedly. One was only 61 and one was 56. We were pretty devastated by their loss. We have continued to carry on and meet once a month. We always keep 2 chairs open for them. Cherish your friends!! Your dresses are all so cute. I can't believe how much Miller has grown...he is such a doll as are Fletcher and Voni! Thank you for taking us along on your week!

    Although you and Josh use phones and computers, your kids are not attached to screens! Thus seeing them cooking, cleaning, and playing is a joy! Our grandchildren have a bit of screen time but our son and daughter-in-law really limit their access! Outside play is healthier.
