January 14, 2014 …

On this day 30 years ago, a wonderful and beautiful little girl was born.  That girl was none other than …… ME!  Hahaha.

I can’t believe I am starting the next decade of my life.  Goodbye twenties and hello thirties.  I have to admit, I did have some anxiety about entering this next phase of life.  I can no longer say I’m in my twenties, not even late twenties.  Gone are the days and I feel as though I should “grow up.”

Welcome to: THE DIRTY THIRTY CLUB!

Having just gotten married this past year, of course the next step would be to start a family.  In order to start a family, I need to make sure I am secure in my job so that I can provide for my family and myself.  Before a family, I want to make sure I have a house to raise them in.  This all requires me to answer questions about myself such as what do I want to do with my life, how will I accomplish these goals and so forth.  Of course, these have always been underlying questions, but now that I have entered my thirties, I feel as though I really need to look at it more seriously and figure out my path.  Now, it is not only my path, but the path I will take with my husband.  It’s all a bit nerve-racking.

With all that going on in my mind, you can see why I was a bit hesitant to turn thirty, but who can stop time.  No one can.  So here I am today, thirty years old looking back on the past 30 years and looking forward to the next 50 years.  I will continue to learn and grow and I dearly hope this decade will shower me with many new beginnings in life!

Here we go: Embrace the thirties &  Take the bull by the horns!

Wait a minute, that’s not the horns… haha!

No turning back!  Let’s live life to the  fullest!  :)
