I’m 35 Today!
I turn 35 today. That's me on the left. 35 sounds really old... doesn't it?!
I was born on April 19, 1981 weighing in at 2lbs. 2oz. My Mom had pre-eclampsia which resulted in me being born at 29 weeks. It was a rough start that I think really helped shaped my personality.
Even today I'm still pretty little. I only stand 5'2" and I weigh 95lbs, but don't cross me, because I can pack a punch! Here's some other "get-to-know me" tidbits!
- I suffered from an severe social anxiety disorder until I was 10 and Refused to speak outside of basically my own home. My elementary teachers are still Stunned that I ended up on the radio, speaking for a living!
- I didn't kiss a boy until I was 17 years old!!
- I graduated from the University of Utah in 2004 with a Communications degree in Electronic Journalism.
- I married my husband after only dating him for 6 months!
- I'm horrible at sports and I can't dance to save my life!
- I have two Amazing kiddos. My oldest son Boston has Aspergers Syndrome, which is a high functioning form of Autism and he is my biggest hero in the whole world.
- I have 28 screws and 2 steel rods in my back after battling scoliosis
- My "death bed" meal would be fish tacos from the Cheesecake Factory
My family helped me celebrate over the weekend by meeting me in Salt Lake City (where I was born and raised). I have a younger sister and brother and I'm really close to my Mom and sister. I love nothing more than shopping with them and going to lunch!
Check out the darling cards my kids made me! A Mama loves nothing more!
I remember when I turned 30 I went through a total mid-life crisis, but now that I'm half way through my 30's I'm realizing it's not too bad! After all, 35 is the new 25 right?! Thanks so much to everyone who helped make my day special!
