Turning 30

So I turned 30 in May and I have to admit I wasn't really looking forward to it. Growing up 30 sounded so old. I can remember my parents when they were in their 30s! Growing up I had pictured 30 much different than what it really is. I figured by the time I was 30 I would be doing PR or Marketing for the Milwaukee Brewers, I would live in a nice house, drive a nice SUV, be married and have 2 children and a dog! WRONG! I am now 30, married for my second time, live in a small ranch house, drive an okay car, do marketing for a small company, and have a 1 1/2 year old yellow lab. BUT I am happier than I have ever been and I look forward to my 30's being the best years of my life! Probably the biggest thing I have learned in my 30 years is that life doesn't always play out the way you planned it! Life is a roller coaster filled with ups and downs. And I believe fully that everything happens for a reason. You may not always understand what the reason may be right away but eventually you will realize. Here's to 30 - the best decade of my life YET!
