Today I am thankful for 30 wonderful years of life!!!! It is weird to me that I am 30. I don't feel thirty. I have to admit, it kind of seems old to me, but I don't feel old. I know that is ridiculous because it isn't old at all. It is just bizarre because I remember turning 20 like it was just yesterday. I have been so incredibly blessed so far and I am really excited to see all of the amazing things that come in the next thirty. We didn't do much simply because I am so worn out it isn't even funny. I have travelled so much in the past few days that I can barely function any more. I think we are going to do something tomorrow, but I really didn't care about doing anything because I was so tired. It was more than enough to be back with my family.
I was beyond excited to see the girls this morning. I tried to wake Lucy up last night, but she was just too tired. My mom threatened my life if I woke up Annie when I went to peek on her, so I let her sleep. They have been very happy to have me home. I think it was better that I got home in the middle of the night because it was kind of like they just woke up and didn't even really remember that I had been gone. I was just so happy to be able to hug on them all day once we got to LR.
Remember when I mentioned my life being a complete and total whirl wind for the next little while. Yeah, that started with my trip to Grand Rapids. I got home last night at 11:15 pm. I was up with the girls by 7 and in a rush to be out of the down with my parents, the girls, and Justin by 8:30 am. We drove to Little Rock today. I had a session this afternoon. If we didn't get it done this afternoon, we were going to miss the newborn stage and we didn't want that, so we got it done and I am so thankful we did. The pictures are going to be very precious. I have another session tomorrow and then we head to Nashville where the real craziness begins. From now through the next week, I have 11 sessions and my nephew's birthday party. My brain hurts just thinking about it, but I am really excited. It is just going to be a lot of work. I started this afternoon with a dear friend's newborn and will try and get it on the La La Blog before too long. I haven't even really looked at the pictures yet, so it will be a while. More of my work from the workshop got posted last night though, so you can see that.
I need to go back and update the past posts with pictures. I should get that done some time tomorrow. For now, I am off to relax just a bit for the rest of my birthday........

So, have a happy b day and enjoy nashville!
Happy 30th, Kelly! So happy you were able to celebrate with your family.
Sounds like your Nashville schedule is going to be absolutely crazy. Drop me an email when you can to let me know if we're going to be able to see you and the girls. We certainly hope we can make it happen. I can't believe the weekend is nearly here!
Happy Birthday! I wish I could be 30 again! By this time next year, you will be very famous ( you already are)!
Happy Birthday!!! I can't believe the one time I read early in the evening and saw the post from the workshop that I missed your birthday post and the chance to give you best wishes on the day itself.
THIRTY? Wow. You ARE old. Time to start shopping at Coldwater Creek and Chicos. I kid, I kid. You are such a spring chicken and I forget how much younger you are than I am. I'm not joking around when I say you have a maturity beyond your years and in a really good way. Maybe it's just because you have so much depth to you that I never thought of you as really young.
I am so happy you were born.

Hey Girl!
Sorry I'm so late, but I wanted to wish you a belated Happy Birthday! Hope it was super!
