Still in my 20s

Another year has come and gone....and I'm one year closer to the end of my 20s! I have to say it is the strangest thing...I honestly forget how old I am! I think it started last year. I couldn't remember if I was 26 or 27...well, I am now 27. I think life goes by so fast these days that the years are turning into a blur. My goal this year is to try and slow down a bit and enjoy the little moments just a little bit more!

We celebrated my birthday on Sunday with the family. It was so fun. It is funny how excited kids get to see someone else getting presents!


I love love love Our Best Bites blog and was super excited for their new cookbook! It has great pictures which is a must for a great cookbook! I was given so many wonderful, thoughtful gifts.


Bry made me my very own necklace holder and I love it! I adore love gifts.


Shelley made me a fabulous cake with vanilla pudding and chocolate chip filling. DELICIOUS! She is quite the little cake decorator!


Yes, I was giving the eye contact of approval for the kiddos to help blow out the candles! Please take note that I was in deed out of candles...so I had two candles for the "2" and a number four and three to cover the "7". Any way you put it - I turned 27!


It was a wonderful birthday...well, day before my birthday. My actual birthday was filled with doctor appointments for my kids and the normal business of being a mommy of three. We did get to meet Bry for dinner which was so yummy! Here's to another wonderful, fun filled year...slowed down just a bit to savor the precious moments that tend to slip by too quickly.

Happy Birthday! 27 was when I truly started to see my 20s slipping away. I'm jealous you got the Best Bites cookbook... Mine is ordered and should be here end of this week or early next. I can't wait! And I think they're doing a book signing in Seattle next month, so I'm hoping to make it to that. :) Anyway... your cake sounds and looks yummy. Love the candle situation!

I am sorry we still have not gone out for your birthday dinner. But we will!

The OBB cookbook is amazing. I just like to flip through it when I need a good smile. It really does make me smile. It's the best! I forget how old I am all the time. I still think of myself as like 20 and I think I've told people like 23 or 24 on accident. It's all a blur. All I know is I'm still alive and loving life. Glad to see you had a good time with family!

Happy Birthday Megan! When I turned 26 that is when I started seriously forgetting how old I am too! But we are still in our 20s! Yay for that!
