How do birthdays come around so fast? And how do the years add up so quick?? I can not believe that I turned 32 today, I still don’t feel that old, do you ever feel like your age? Today I chose to spend the day with Cole and it has been such a beautiful day! If you have been following along for awhile you know that I make goals every 5 years, so right now I am working on 35 before 35. I like to try and do one of the goals on my birthday, so today we accomplished number 17! We walked from our house in Nibley to the temple in Logan. We had so much fun on our urban hike, it was a total of 13 miles.
