my first 30 years

yesterday was my half birthday... i am officially 30 1/2!!  i had not started this blog when i turned 30 - so i thought today would be a fun day to share this!! ha ha -- where did the time go {and how come i can't get my next thirty years by tim mcgraw out of my head?!?!}  I know this sounds a little cheesy, but i've spent a lot of time reflecting on these last thirty years, probably since this is the first time that I actually feel like an adult.   i think i will keep these fun thoughts for another post -- but i really did have something i wanted to share with you!!  at least once a month {if not more often} i am told that i look like I am anywhere from 15-21 years old.  apparently thats a fabulous thing - but it can be a little discouraging when you're thirty, own a home, work full time, and people treat you like a teenager. i guess i have been blessed with a very youthful appearance  ;o) 

it did make me wonder, do i really look any different than i did at 15?  so... i found a picture for every age!!  personally, i think i look a lot different than i did at 15.   what do you think?

anthro love

am i the only person with a ridiculous obsession to anything anthropolgie?  i love almost everything about it... their clothes, their bedding **sigh**, their jewelry, the fact that i fit into smaller sizes of their clothes than any other store ;o)  what i don't love is their prices.  it breaks the bank everytime i make a purchase.  so i decided to go web shopping today, and this is what i came up with!! 

what do you think? what would you buy?
