It's my 29th birthday today! Can you believe it, I mean seriously when did that happen!? In my heart I still feel like I'm 18 and meeting Cole for the first time.

Anyways, here are some things that make me quite happy today...

Enjoy it!

MOUSEVOX VINTAGE  – (May 25, 2010 12:39 PM)  

I emailed you with birthday wishes this morning, but HAPPY BIRTHDAY here too (for good measure).

It's funny how, the older we get, the faster time sneaks up on us. Last year, when someone asked me how old I was going to be on my birthday, I actually responded, "27. No, that's wrong. I'll be 31!". Ha!

Meggy  – (May 25, 2010 12:47 PM)  

Happy birthday, darlin! I hope your bike ride is splendid, and I love that video of you with the camera.

xoxoxo
