Gift | The 30th Birthday.



I am one day shy of my half-birthday today, meaning I have 6 months and 1 day until I am 30 years old (the horror!).  The first of my childhood friends hit that very adult-feeling milestone a few weeks ago, and though we don't exchange birthday presents regularly, I wanted to come up with a little something to mark the occasion. 

I searched through Pinterest for good 30th birthday ideas, and there were quite a few, but I was looking for something a little more understated, but intimate, so she could reflect on what it means to be 3 decades old!  Was I over-thinking it?  Yea, sure.  Nothing new there.  I kept coming back to the idea that 30 is a reflective age, meaning it's natural for us to assess our lives and say where have I been?  where am I at?  where am I going?  So here's where that led me:     

{a little sappy, but that's kinda the point!}

{light a sparkler for each piece of your life: past, present, future}

Have you come across any brilliant birthday ideas?  I would love to hear more!
