Well, the time has come and gone. I am 30. I feel no different! I don't feel older, wiser, more mature, or anything! I love my life and appreciate everything that has happened so far for what it was. It's all brought me here, and I couldn't be in a better place right now. Thank you all for the birthday wishes. It's been one to remember, that's for sure!

Some pictures from this memorable day - my birthday cake from the surprise party, and some flowers from the bouquet my parents gave me.
