It's my 30th birthday year. As part of my celebrations, I thought I would take my birthday month to reflect on my life. To help, I am using some of my scrapbooked pages to illustrate my life. For each year, I've chosen a few pages to highlight that year. I hope you enjoy my look back as much as I do.

1999: My seventeenth year! Near the end of high school and still finding my way.

Page 1: Check out my amazing birthday tiara... Love it! My friend Shannon threw my birthday party at her house We had party hats, cake, presents, and tons of gummi bears.

Page 2: Toward the end of the spring semester, the English/Social Studies students traveled to Stratford and Toronto, Canada to visit the sites and see some plays. These pictures were taken at the top of the CN Tower. Note the crazy winds!

Page 3: Another school dance, this time winter Semi-Formal. I went with Jenny, her boyfriend Thomas, and friend Corey. I loved my gray shiny dress. And you can't see, but I wore some awesome 4 inch shiny grey mules.

Page 4: Christmas vacation. Some friends and I spent the night at Beth's house making cookies and engaging in general silliness.
