Welcome to the Club

It's official, Matt and I are 30 (deep breath, don't hyperventilate). I can't say that this is my favourite number to be turning, if it was up to me I'd be eternally 25. I don't feel 30, can anyone tell me what it's supposed to feel like?

I think the problem I am having with 30 is that I don't feel like my life is where I thought it would be. Does that make sense? I love my life I have 2 wonderful children, the husband of my dreams but somehow I just don't feel like this is where I was going to be. Maybe I thought I would be independently wealthy by 30 or maybe I thought I would be in my dream house feeling completely settled. I don't know where I thought I would be but somehow I just don't feel like this it.

So I think my goal for this new year of my life is to try and figure out where I'm supposed to be. What does God have for me? Am I hearing Him in the big and small things of my life or am I running ahead of Him and ruining His perfect plans? And besides trying to figure things out getting closer to my wonderful Saviour is never a bad thing. So here is to the year ahead, hopefully a year of reflection and growing closer to the One who made me!

My birthday dinner with the best family in the world.
Notice my birthday muffins, I wanted something so Vaughn could sing happy birthday (all I really wanted on my birthday) but nothing that would have leftovers . . . I have no will power :)
