Happy Birthday to me, happy birthday to me, happy birthday to meeeeeeeee…..HAPPY BIRTHDAY TO ME!
The big 2-7.
& that’s me to the left, fresh out of The Momma’s oven on June 2, 1983.
I have lived over a quarter of a century. I’m closer to 30 than I am to college & almost 10 years out from high school. But instead of depressing me, I find it rather exciting! I cannot wait to live out at least another 73 years.
I have never been a huge birthday celebrator because I’ve never wanted to be disappointed. Thankfully, my husband ALWAYS comes through on my birthday (this year I got a Keurig coffee maker & new Rainbow flips!) & my brothers are getting increasingly better at calling. The Momma faithfully calls every birthday morning to sing to me, even though she knows she’ll see me later that day. She always asks what flavor of cake I want & I’m finally realizing that my birthday probably means more to her than it does to me. Also, let’s all please give a round of applause to The Momma for pushing me out into this world with minimal conehead & only moderate fetal distress. Nice work, Momma!
So…instead of going all Eeyore on everyone this year & setting the bar low, I decided to treat everyone else with a massive, fun giveaway day celebrating all the things that I love in my life. How Oprah is that?

So several times today, you’ll get a peek into my life, my favorite things, & a chance to win something associated with what I love. Besties, Tuck, cooking, blogging, Etsy…all while imagining me introducing it IN THE OPRAH FREE STUFF YELL.
me at 7 months, aka Harrison’s age.
It’s going to be an awesome day & I hope y’all enjoy it as much as I do

Happy Birthday lady! I have been following your blog since the Harpie days. I am 28 and my mother still calls every birthday to sing to me and asks me what flavor of cake I want too. (Even though she always gets the same answer.) Sometimes it's the small celebrations in life that mean everything. Enjoy!
HaPpY bIrThDaY, bLaIr!!!!

We share a birthday! Isn't June 2nd a great date? There's just something very special about it.
Hope you're having a wonderful day… I delivered my daughter 2.5 weeks ago and am having a nice quiet day with her– not the sort of birthday I'm used to but wonderful in its own way! Enjoy your day and here's wishing you a healthy, peaceful, and happy upcoming year.
happy birthday! mine is just 2 weeks away. hope it's a wonderful day for you!
Happy birthday dear Beth Anne, happy birthday to you! Cutie! Harrison looks a lot like you. Just wanna let you know you brighten my life, and I've followed your blog religiously since I found it shortly before you switched from blogspot. My dear one and only boy was born Sept. 29, so I can relate to a lot at the same time, and I don't feel so isolated. I admire your courage, style, and ability to make me laugh my beverages out my nose. Have an awesome day and coming year! Hugs, Michelle
Happy Birthday! It's my dad's bday too- a great day for a birthday!

Happy Birthday Beautiful! We're the same age btw, and 27 I agree it's kind of a weird in between age. My birthday was just in April and I am still not used to saying "27" yet. Loves!
Oh my gosh you were a cute baby! I think Harry looks like a little blonde version of BA!
Happy happy birthday to one of the most beautiful and strong mommies I know!!!
A very happy birthday to you!! And now I know why I feel we are kindred spirits a lot of the time, were both Gemini's!! 27 is a great number. It was when I first really started feeling like I might be a grown up. Might being the operative word. 5 years later I still only think I might be a grown up!
Happy Birthday Blair!
Happy Birthday, Blair!

Happy birthday to you! Hope it's been a great day! Love reading your blog! you're so fresh and real! And you crack me up!
Happy Birthday to a fellow Gemini! My b-day is this Sunday. Enjoy your day!
Happy Birthday to you!! My birthday is today too, but I am a little bit older than 27. I'm 33 today, but it can always be worse.
Happy Birthday!!!!
