Peace Out 20's....

I know I have said this countless times, but I cannot believe I am turning 30.  It is just not possible.  I have loved my 20's more than I dreamed of.  I know people say being 30 is not that bad or 30 is the new 20.  Well guess what, it is only the people in their 30's saying this! 

I have been told that people love their 30's more than their 20's.  All I have to say to that is my 30's better look out, my 20's were pretty freaking awesome!

In my 20's I....
  • Bought and sold my first house, all by myself by the way
  • Acquired all three of my beautiful pets
  • Met and married my wonderful husband
  • Made the most amazing friends a girl could ask for
  • Became a runner
  • Ran six marathons
  • Learned that no matter what you do, it is possible for someone to dislike you for absolutely no reason at all
  • Moved to a new city away from my comfort zone
  • Traveled to more places than I had ever hoped to
  • Spent more money on shoes and purses than most people do in a lifetime
  • Became an SUV driver
  • Learned that my favorite thing to do is make my husband laugh
  • Tried and liked strawberries, kiwi, and apples
  • Became a wine drinker
  • Discovered Starbucks
  • Learned that there is no substitute for good girl friends that make you laugh until you cry
Watch out 30's you have big shoes to fill!

What a sweet list! You did more in your twenties than many people do in their entire lives. With as awesome as you are the 30s are bound to be just as awesome!

You are right - that is going to be tough to top all those accomplishments! You forgot to add "made meals & baked goods from a recipe and they tasted awesome!"

Welcome to your 30's Miss Thang!

Hugs,
