I turned 36 on January 30....for the first time in my life, I experienced the realization of "Maybe I should stop telling people my age. Should I take my year of birth off of my Facebook page? I am old!!!" Thirty-six felt more like an over-the-hill birthday than I expected. But, BUT, it was an absolutely perfect day!!
Started with an 8 mile run with my husband. I can promise you that I've never had a birthday where I could just get up and run 8 miles. This must mean that age is definitely in the mind alone. When we finished our run, we realized how much the day had warmed up since we had first left the house, so a birthday at the park became my wish!
Looking back, I think that maybe I had an outdoor birthday party when I lived in Florida with my mom for a short 6 month period.....she will have to confirm that! But, I can very safely say this was my very first outdoor birthday party in Tennessee! Growing up, my birthday parties always got snowed out - a huge snowstorm would hit and I'd have to cancel it. Seemed like that happened every single year! But this year - perfection.
A run with my husband followed by a day at the park with my husband, our girls, my dad, step-mom, sisters, and good, good friends! We had a ball. It was a perfect 36th birthday! Just don't try to correct me if next year I say "It was a perfect 34th birthday!"

Bridgett........I hope I dont feel over the hill when I turn 36! I guess I still have a few years to find out!
Had the best day!
Very sweet Bridgett! And yes, you did have a birthday party at Cocoa Beach. I remember it got so windy we had to get inside Aunt Debbie's van to blow your candles out. It was probably warmer at your Greeneville party. Yes, age is in the mind. Love you,
Mom:)
