My, friends, at exactly 8:49 a.m. today, I turned the big 3-0. I braced myself for something apocalyptic to happen, but strangely, I don’t feel any different. As I ease myself into this new decade. I have some lovely photos to share with you next week, but for now, I’d love to know: Do you love your birthday?
P.S. I’m going out to lunch and to see Crazy, Stupid, Love to celebrate. Can’t wait!
P.P.S. Happy birthday, President Obama!

Happy Freakin birthday! Hope it was an awesome one.
I started giving up on my birthday last year but this year a new friend made a big deal out of it and it has renewed my faith in it.

Thanks so much for visiting my blog!

Happy Birthday! Have a lovely day. Before turning 30 this year, I was dreading it, but I don't feel any different. I may be older, but it didn't necessarily make me any wiser!
Kehly says
Ahh! Happy birthday cute lady! I hope you have the best day and you better let us know how the movie is!
Ugh. I hate my birthday. It's on Christmas Eve and it is totally overshadowed by Christmas. I need to start celebrating it in June or something 🙂

Single Stone Studios says
Happy Birthday!! I hope you have a lovely day and this is the start of a fresh new year for you!
I have to say I don't LOVE my birthday but I'm getting better with it. My last birthday was 35 and it wasn't as bad as I thought it would be and it's been a good yr. Acruallt it's been quite hard but I'm learning so much from it so I'm counting it as good. It's all in perspective, right? 🙂
Enjoy your day! Age truly is just a number – life is so much more!
The Blonde Duck says

Happy, Happy Birthday! I hope you had a wonderful day! How was the movie? I've been debating seeing it.
Nikki says
Happy Birthday! You'll have to wait until December 2012 for that apocolyptic part 😉
Hope you have a fantastic day, I want to see that movie too!
Nikki says
P.S. I just read your article, I hope you get that first in your 30th year. And then let me know how 30 goes so I know if I should turn it too… 😉

Happy birthday for yesterday: hope you had a wonderful time! Yes, I love my birthday but in a low-key, don't need much fuss kind of way. Although I have been known to sulk if there are no flowers!

I turned 30 two weeks before you and I was waiting for something apocalyptic too but so far, I'm the same. Maybe a few more wrinkles but they could've been there for years and I only noticed when I turned 30. Happy belated birthday!
