A Very Merry Unbirthday to Me

I have been calling today "Black Tuesday" for the last month as I knew it was approaching. This is the first time I have dreaded a birthday, and I have no idea why! I told people to send me condolences, rather than happy birthdays. I left Provo for the day just so I could avoid any unnecessary birthday hoopla. I even took the year of my birth off my facebook profile so people wouldn't know that I am... wait.... gasp.... ahh.... TWENTY THREE.

But today has been anything but black. I wore my fave white shorts, and bright pink shirt, and put on a smile that actually made me believe today should be happy! And as I blew out the candles on a delish ice cream cake with my two little cousins.... I realized this is what I wanted.

Just some good family, an adorable cake, and some new spanx from Target that make me feel 5 pounds thinner on my fat days. Life doesn't get easier than it is right now. And so it has been a very MERRY unbirthday for me.

No Shame

I used to believe that blogs were only supposed to be used by married women with children. Their main purpose was to show off their adorable children, and the adorable activities and projects they do with their children. Well, I am neither married nor have children, but (dare I admit) I have a blog. This is mostly for me, but I figure it's a good way to keep family and some close friends informed on my extremely interesting (not) life. You don't have to read this, and I am not really sure what I will post... but here I am..... with no shame.
