31 Candles

Uncategorized

July 17, 2014

I may be turning 31 today, but I sure don’t feel 31. That just sounds old to me. Not that I mind growing older, I just don’t “feel” older…maybe it’s the working out, eating better, and using a skincare regimen that’s starting to work its magic and do some good to mind, body, and soul.

This past year has been another whirlwind–don’t I always say that? Everyone keeps telling me to slow down, but that’s just not in my DNA. We have started a business, sold our first home and moved into another, traveled, and survived our first year as parents to two crazy, happy, healthy, and amazing baby girls. I’m hoping we can take it down a notch this next year.
For this birthday, I decided not to do a big celebration, but spent loads of quality time over the past few days with my favorite people. Sunday evening, we had family dinner at Mimi and Pappy’s and mom made my favorites by request. Then, she and I had a day date on Tuesday, getting our hair done and eating lunch together. Finally, last night it was all about quality time at home with Jeff and the girls…sometimes the simplest of days gives you much more joy than anything else in the world, and that is what my heart truly needed.
However, as of today, two of my besties and I are on a plane headed to the beach to celebrate a fun-filled weekend at the beach with our incredible girlfriends. Four days of all girl fun and I know it’s going to be a weekend we’ll never forget. Be sure to follow along on Instagram (and I will apologize ahead of time for oversharing)

Thanks for sticking with me this year…lots to reflect upon, but I know undoubtedly I will still be focusing on all the happiness life has to offer! Be back soon my dears…OXOX
