I remember when I was a teenager thinking 24 sounded so old...
Although I know it isn't OLD, I feel like 24 is different then 20, 21, 22, and 23.
I am in my mid twenties, and I always thought that would be somewhat saddening to know that I am no longer considered 'in my youth' (atleast in my mind that's what 24 means).
But the reality is I love birthdays. I love the idea of celebrating someones life. Life is fragile, and should be celebrated. So here is to another year of living... not just kind of living, but trying to live every moment to it's fullest. Ben told me that 24 will be my best year yet, I believe him.
That being said, I can't help but thank everyone that makes my life worth living. Because without all the people I love, life seems kind of meaningless. Although the gifts were nice, what always means the most is how thoughtful all my friends and family are.
And of course, my husband for being as sweet as ever.
Some pictures of the festivites.
Happy Birthday! You always look so darling!
