Celebrating 50

On June 17, 2018 I turned 50! I think there used to be a time when the idea of saying those words would have been almost unbelievable, but here I am – not only saying it – but embracing it. I’ve said for quite a few years now that “age is just a number” or “you are the age you feel.” Not focusing on what a number should be, but celebrating the number of days alive every day has been a focal point of my life for a few years now.

Celebrating with me were a number of friends, all of whom had journeyed to New Orleans for a weekend of fun, culture, love and drinking. The whole weekend was planned by my amazing husband, Chris, who surprised me on many occasions with creating more memorable moments than I thought possible. He is one of the most amazing men I know and love.

Enjoy a few pictures from the weekend.
