27 candles & setting balloons free.


a backyard barbecue with family was the perfect way to celebrate 27 candles.  i wore my favorite peach dress, put on red lipstick and made a special birthday wish for this new chapter of my life.  i expect this year will be nothing short of an adventure...i look forward to the journey.


as a gift, i bought myself a few balloons and set them free.  letting go is hard, but being free is beautiful.
