Well...I am officially 30-years-old with a 30-year-old sister. I guess this is the first birthday, where the old birthday cards start to apply to me. Bourland sent one in the mail that said...It takes a lot to admit you're 30...like 5 or 6 years! That's about how I feel about it! But...I also saw one that said, "I don't like to think of myself as 30. I'm just 18 with 12 years of experience!" Some days I feel 18. Some days I feel 30 (with two children)! :)
Oh well! Either way! :) What can you do? I'm just going to enjoy it! My 20's were a hit for sure! I feel like I was very productive, so no regrets...only excited to see what God has in store for my next 30 years will hold. I know I am incredibly blessed. So,my plan is to enjoy my blessings! We went down to the beach to celebrate with these 2 characters on Saturday morning. I think they're cute!
Allyson had a birthday tablecloth on the table, several balloons, presents and a cake! I'm a big fan of having a twin sister anyway, but ESPECIALLY on our birthday. There's nothing like throwing a party for yourself-except having an excuse that we're doing it for each other. She's a REALLY, REALLY good one! I am so crazy thankful that I've been able to spend the past 30 years with her. I have two best friends in this world. One is Walker Williams. The other is definitely Allyson Harper. I can't really explain how much I love that girl, but I really, really love her and am really glad we get to play together pretty often.
It's kind of like...If my children are my hearts walking around outside my body, my dear Brown-Brown is like my left arm and half my brain. I can't hardly function without her. It's ridiculous, but I call her for 20 different things throughout the day. A few examples...If I forget to look at directions before I go, she looks up the address for me. If I need balloons ordered, she's on it. If I'm planning a baby shower, she comes up with over half the plans! HOW NICE IS THAT?!?! AND on top of all that...she's really the kindest person I know. She has a sincere heart of gold that only wants the best for the people around her, and she is able to see the best in everyone. I really, really like her!
Here's my bedroom at her house she decorated so lovely. :)
Here's the cake (from Publix). YUMMY!
And before dinner at the Backporch....

Awww shucks!! I am in tears! That is so nice and it's an honor that you love me that much! I think you are about as special as God makes them and that is the truth!! I LOVE you and admire you and am so glad you are mine :)!!
I hope my twins love each other the way you all do! Thanks for sharing!
OH my goodness do I love you both more than you can imagine! You made me cry you little stinker. Wish I could have been there to celebrate with y'all! Maybe we can all make up for it in June!? I love you both... Happy 30th!!
How precious!!! I totally can see how you guys are like one person but two bodies...that sounds crazy, but I get it!!! I know I say if I ever had twins, I would go totally crazy, but when I see y'all and your relationship, I WANT twins so they can experience it! I know how close my sisters and me are and I can only imagine how close TWINS could be!
I agree... I think Allyson is the sweetest, most genuine person but then again so are YOU!!~ Love you guys! Wish we could hang out a lot!!!
