Time to play a game, readers. Which of the Rice girls in this picture is having a birthday tomorrow?
OK. It's kind of a trick question. Because Hannah, over there on your left, had her 19th birthday last week. Happy birthday, Hammer. And my mom, who isn't in this photo, had her birthday the week before that. Lots of January birthdays in our family. Audrey, in the middle, was born in May, so it's not her birthday. (Sorry, Audge.)
Nope, tomorrow, Monday, January 16, is my birthday! I'm the one on the right. Still the tallest, too, if you notice. (Haha, baby sisters.)
Since Monday is kind of a boring day for a birthday, I decided to celebrate on Saturday. Dan took me out to a nice dinner, and then we had dessert at the Melting Pot, a fondue place where they let you pick out your chocolate for the fondue. So good.
But tomorrow, I will officially be 26 years old. Twenty-six! I'm trying not to think of that as four short years until I'm 30, but it's definitely started to occur to me. Still, 26 is a good age, and I like my life a lot, and I'm sure 30 will be great, too.
So wish me a happy birthday, people!

Is it my imagination, or are you finally catching up to me in age? ; ) Happy birthday, sweet friend! So glad you're joining the Unashamed to Proclaim "It's My Birthday" Club!

Happy Birthday, Haley! You're right, twenty-six is a great age (and, yeah, thirty is fine too--even better in many ways, but no need to measure everything by it; that's something that never ends. Thirty-two (me)? That's only eight years from forty! See, it gets silly). Anyway. Woohoo! Many blessings to you. :D
