Birthday Week

Another birthday is coming up for me. It's the big 2-7 this year....wow...seriously? When did I get so old? So, this year I have the unique and awesome privilege of having my birthday on Easter! I'm super excited....especially because I can just forget it's my birthday and celebrate a greater celebration: Jesus' resurrection. I heard someone talk about how we often put the emphasis on Jesus' death and not so much on the resurrection....this year I want to reflect on His death but put more emphasis on the fact that He ROSE from the dead...He is alive!! It is a reason to celebrate and I will be doing just that on Sunday :)

But, to be completely honest, I'm tired this week and extremely unmotivated. A little discouraged by my post baby look and wanting a vacation from my thoughts. I think way too much these days....I used to talk too much and not think enough. Now I think too much and internalize most of it. I wish I could find a balance.

But, even though this week may be gloomy and a little depressing, I know that a celebration is coming. The most awesome celebration of the year and I really can't wait to give up my birthday this year to celebrate it :)

Oh, and because this is a super cute pic from a wedding Tristen and I went to this weekend:My parents and Tristen :) Super cute...
