30 - part 1

On December 17th (yes, OVER three weeks ago) I turned 30 years old. {THIRTY!} Now, I am fully aware that to some 30 is considered very young. I by no means feel that 30 is OLD, but it also does not feel young. Oddly enough, I feel really good about that!

I am the fifty of six girls in my family. My younger sister, Elisabeth and I have watched our older sisters mature gracefully in front of our eyes. The older four sister are already in their thirties, and have grown MORE and MORE BEAUTIFUL as the years have gone by. In a way, turning thirty means I'VE ARRIVED! I hope {HOPE} I've earned a little more experience. I have two kids, I've served in a few callings at church, my husband and I have run and sold a successful business. {Not to mention all the mistakes I've made that helped me learn and grow - I will spare you the details.} I've got a long way to go, but I feel that turning thrity is an improtant mile stone. One I'm EXCITED about.


A few things I'm looking forward to this year?
1. Having our 3rd CHILD
2. PAYING DOWN a massive amount of debt. {Ok, we hope it's a massive amount. We'll see. But there WILL be less by this time next year.}


So, here's to TURNING 30, Learning more lessons, getting MORE AND MORE BEAUTIFUL, and BECOMING more of the person I want to be.

What do YOU think? Who do you think has improved with age?

P.S. The "celebrities" below were chosen simply because of their outer beauty with age. I want to be like Sister Hinckley in EVERY WAY. {Inside and out.}
