Then, my husband took me out for a romantic dinner and
drinks ocean side at a beautiful restaurant that I haven’t yet been to called:
The Mooring. For my intention, I pulled out a dress that I have had for well over a year but never worn. I literally pulled the tags off of it
tonight. I decided that although it felt too dressy for this small beach town,
tonight was the night. And the night was perfectly amazing. I was lucky enough to
welcome in the last year of my 30’s with the best guy I know. I enjoyed amazing
conversation, laughs, drinks and food. I thought about how blessed I am to welcome
in another year of life. On our walk home we stopped at Ben & Jerry’s for
ice cream and came home to sit on the deck to enjoy each others company and the
night air while I write this blog. #lifeisgood #HGAL
In memory of my lifelong best friend and cousin who was taken by cancer in 2011, I will be chronicling the next 365 days of my life to live with intention and do something each and every day with my life in her memory.

Day 158 – Birthday Dress
Today was my birthday and it really was quite amazing!
Waking up to a bunch of birthday wishes, texts, phone calls and social media messages
was so awesome. I had friends sing me happy birthday first thing this morning, some
of the nicest messages and phone calls from my kids that a mom could ever ask
for and my hubby had flowers delivered. Then, when I got home later this
afternoon, I was met just inside the door with my son and two of his friends serenading
me. It was the neatest thing. While my son played the ukulele, his first friend
sang Happy Birthday in Spanish, then his other friend sang it in French, then
he sang it in English. Then together they sang it in all the languages. It was
the sweetest, most unique thing I have ever seen. He and his buddies all
chipped in to buy me a large bouquet of flowers and a cake. I was so touched
and completely surprised, it just melted my heart.
