Birthday Girl

After posting a sneak peek of today’s post on Instagram last night, I’m certain that a few people where under the impression that I was going to announce being pregnant. As much as Jason and I want littles, that time has not come for us quite yet. But…in other world news…IT’S MY BIRTHDAY. Well, it’s actually tomorrow, but I wanted to get the party started a little early. I cannot believe I’m going to be 26. ha. That 30 year mark is approaching much more rapidly than I thought it would…yikes!

As some of you may know, I love celebrating, period. But there is something super duper special about birthdays. And speaking of special, I wanted to give one of you a birthday present. Yes, that’s right, one of YOU! You may be wondering why? Well, since last June, Live Love and Read has grown tremendously and I couldn’t have done it without the unwavering support of my readers. Although this is a special day for me, I wanted to show you guys just how much I appreciate each and every one of you by hosting a little “birthday present” giveaway! The “Birthday Present” Giveaway  will go live via my Instagram around 6PM EST TODAY. So, be sure to check back in for the deets : ) It’s a pretty darn good present if I do say so myself!

Also, can we talk about how cute this birthday girl tee is? I absolutely love ILY Couture and when I stumbled upon this tee while stalking their feed one evening before bed, I just knew I had to have it! Y’all, it is seriously one of the most comfy tees I have ever worn and yes..YOU NEED ONE. Oh, and I’m beyond obsessed with my latest J. Crew Factory purchase. I finally found the most perfect pair of cuffed denim shorts. woot woot. YAY for new clothes and birthdays!
