Birthday Week - 25 is the new 21

6.16.13.

Sadly all birthdays must come to an end...& a new chapter in life really begins...

...but being 25 doesn't feel much different from being 24 (and under)...

There are some things to look forward to though:

1. I can rent a car--who's ready for a road trip! Also car insurance discounts??
2. Prime age for the 7 year rule ;) ...still a Puma, not quite a cougar yet HAHA.
3. People think you are mature; don't let their judgements get too far into your thoughts though!
4. Others will value you more what's inside than what's on the outside.
5. The best of life is ahead--I hear the mid-twenties are awesome!

I am so fortunate to have such wonderful family & friends who made my 25th birthday fabulous! I can't say enough thank you's to everyone who helped make this birthday so special :)

Also stumbled across this in the Thought Catalog--which i LOVE!--6 Rules for Turning 25.

I am also loving this; it reminds me to love MY life, because it is mine & it's OK to be 25 :)

Also want to wish a Happy Father's Day to my Daddy (and all of the other father's out there!)--"you're the besssssssst"! :)

Birthday Week - Take me back to yesteryear...

6.13.13.

Since it's Birthday Week I'm going to throw it back to when I first entered my twenty-somethings chapter of my life...

Say hello to one of my dearest and longest best friends Kimi-chan (my fabulous beauty guru friend)! She has been there for me through thick & thin and I can't wait to see where the rest of this chapter in our lives will take the both of us :)

#throwbackthursday
