My 30th birthday cake! PIP

Hey ladies,

I turned 30 today, which actually hit me like a ton of bricks at 11:50 pm last night.  I felt miserable and was crying, not only because I was mourning my 20s, but I truly felt that besides my FI, my life is not where I expected it to be.  Poor FI, he tried his best to console me but I was an emotional wreck.

I didn't want to get out of bed and was crying on and off all day....until I got my birthday cake!  A few weeks ago I hired the same baker who is making our wedding cake to make my 30th cake, and it looks awesome!!!  I gave her my inspiration picture and colors, and she just ran with it. 

Yeah, turning 30 sucks (and I know I do have a lot to be thankful for; not everyone makes it to 30), but I at least can end the day with some great cake!

(Pic look so much better if you click on it)

    Aww it's adorable!

    I understand getting emotional on birthdays..I was miserable when I turned 20. But no more being upset because it's your birthday! Okay? :)

    Enjoy your day! Happy birthday!

    Happy Birthday! Your cake is so cute, love it! I'm sorry you were so upset but I think a lot of people have a hard time turning 30, I know I probably will be when I get there.

    Now you have to look at it like you will be marrying your best friend when your 30! Nothing better than that!

    Hey you! I left you birthday wishes on our other board :)

    You are too awesome to worry about getting older hun;  remember these words of wisdom:

    The beauty of a woman is not in a facial mode but the true beauty in a woman is reflected in her soul. It is the caring that she lovingly gives the passion that she shows. The beauty of a woman grows with the passing years ~ Audrey Hepburn

    BTW: If you're near Springfield or Cooperstown on April 22nd, let me know :)

    Welcome to the 30's club :). I felt the way you did when i hit 25, ZOMG i was a 1/4 century old & that was just way too old for me. I was a hot mess. I thought turning 30 i would be the same way but i did not have the same feeling. I had a big bash. I am now 32 & had the most mellow birthday in ages last year.

    Your cake rocks!! Turning 30 hit me hard too. I think it's because I had a timeline of what I wanted to accomplish by then (getting married, kids, job) and the only one I had accomplished was the job.  I hope you enjoy your 30th!  Happy Birthday!

    I was so happy actually about turning 30! But the night before I was also depressed.Mainly because at the time I was still single, no prospects in site and unsure of if I would have kids. But I realized like you mentioned. We have so much to be thankful for, great friends, living to see 30 and of course great cake!

    I ended up throwing a big party for my friends as a thank you for being there for me through my 20's and for entering this new decade with me. They still talk about it and bonus all of the planning for that prepared me for planning my wedding!
