***This giveaway is no longer accepting entries – see who won below!***
First off, thanks for all of the birthday wishes everyone. Second, random.org has selected our winner as… Lee (who just turned 31 and is so far happy with it). That’s good news for us too, since we’re both staring down at 31 now. Congrats Lee!
Guess what today is? Sherry’s 30th birthday! And to celebrate, Crate & Barrel is gonna give one of you a Benjamin to spend for every decade that Sherry’s been alive (that’s $300 in case your math skills are in a post-lunch slump). And that’s not the only thing Crate & Barrel is giving away these days. They’re also in the midst of their Pick Your Page sweepstakes where one winner will score all of the items featured in any spread from their new Spring catalog. That could earn you up to $15,000 worth of crate-y, barrel-y goodness! So feel free to pop over there to get in on that giveaway too.

Nancy says
AGE ME!! Early 40’s were my favorite. (How on earth did I get old enough to say that!!??)
sheila says
AGE ME!
I would pick 28. That was the best year. I spend the summer, lazing the days away back at home in Kenya on safari with people I loved. My best friend got married and was incredibly in love. I had a fellowship to do my research. I saw my mum and siblings again after four years. Everything was right with the world.
Kristen says
AGE ME!
I’d go back and be 18 again so I can relive college! :)
Sarah says
Age Me!! Happy Birthday, I think the big 3-0 is such a fun year… I’m a little over 1/2 way through it! ;) Love your site and use it to show my husband we can DIY too!!
Denise Mattsen says
AGE ME!!

Kelli says
AGE ME
I would stay 32 (where I am) because I love being a mommy to my babies.
Happy 30th Sherry!
Jayme says
AGE ME! I would be 31 again at the beach with my family. The last family vacation we had before my father-in-law passed away. The time spent together was the best!
JenWoodhouse.com says
AGE ME!!!
Sharon says
Age Me! Weird I’m celebrating with my sister in law her 31st bday today. I’d love to be 19 again. I traveled around the world a lot that year and it was completely awesome and I want to do it again.
Mariela Lawrence says
AGE ME! I’d love to be 20 again. I would travel the world before getting married so young. (Even though my hubby is a keeper!) Happy Birthday Sherry!!!
Jnbean says
AGE ME!!
I’d like to return to the day I turned 21. I spent it with my two best friends – the one who was like my sister and the other one who would eventually become my husband. One of my favorite days of my life!
Stephanie says
AGE ME!!!
I’d like to go back to 21 (which is only 4 years ago) but I just remember it being a LOT of fun and I think it’d be kind of awesome to relive that.
Ryan says
AGE ME
I love being 31!

Adam says
AGE ME!
Elizabeth says
AGE me! 30 and loving it!
Lorelle says
AGE ME!
I would be tempted to go back to do things a little differently..but then I wouldn’t want to have to relive those past years again! I’m in a good place now so I’ll stick with my current age of 27 :)
Jen says
AGE ME!!
Pam Fisher says
“AGE ME”- I would love to be 42 again. (As long as I can take the wisdom I have gained from then to now with me) This was when all of my 6 children were still small and at home and when I had my 7th. Those days went way too fast, I want to enjoy them all over again.
Hannah says
Age Me…maybe back to 27…last year when we were blessed with the arrival of our beautiful son. Loving life with him in it!
Rachel says
AGE ME!!! I’d pick 22… It was a great age for me, just graduated college and waiting to find a real job. No responsibility! And I would do quite a few things differently :)
Eva says
Age Me!
I’m happy with 26 : )
Stacy says
AGE ME!
I’m 29 and would like to stay this age forever!!
lauralye says
Age me! I would love to be 18 again. If I knew then what I know now, there are many opportunities I would take advantage of. Turning 18 is a big deal!
Taylor says
AGE ME!! I honestly can say that I wish I could stay the age I am now. My husband and I are about to celebrate our second wedding anniversary and still call ourselves newlyweds! Life is great! Seriously even if we do not win this I want everyone who reads this and the first thought instead of it being “man I don’t want to get up…” Let it be “today is going to be a GREAT day” if you do this I promise every part may not be great but the great/good will out way the bad!
Elizabeth says
AGE ME!!!
I would love to go back to being 16 when the world was my oyster and there was nary a care in the world (aside from how I could get an A from Sister Judith in Jr. Comp who just didn’t want to ever give those out) and when I finally started becoming me!
Donna says
AGE ME! I love just wherenI am in my late 50s. However, if I could be 30 again and have your energy, it might be worth it to go back!
Andria says
AGE ME-I would choose to be 23 again. My husband and I met that year, and dating/ getting engaged was a blast.
Kristin H says
AGE ME! I think I’d want to be 5 for a couple of weeks, just to enjoy playing around. But then I’d want to skip back to 26 :-)! Happy Birthday Sherry!
Mallory says
AGE ME! I think I’d go to 30 :)
mel H says
Age me! I would go back to 18 and do my first semester of college again! I was so shy back then I feel like I missed out!
Amy Steinberg says
AGE ME! I would love to relive my mid and late 20’s. I think that I be more adventurous and less cautious the second time around! But the first time around was pretty fun too!
Erin C. says
AGE ME!! and Happy Birthday, Sherry! I can’t wait until I’m a little old lady with grandkids and little old husband and a lake house. haha don’t ask me where that came from! I’m only 33! :)
Kacee Brown says
“AGE ME” I love being 23! My husband and I are at a great stage…loving life and decorating our first house together has been FUN!
Dan says
AGE ME
I’m sticking with my current age, 26. There’s no time like the present!
Audrey says
AGE ME – 19 was amazing. I had freedom, confidence, and no worries! (Not to say that life isn’t good now, but college and studying abroad were great times!)
Dawn says
Age Me!! I’d love to be in my mid-20’s again when everything seemed possible.
Amy says
AGE ME!! I would love to be 29 again so I could live my son’s first two years of his life all over again. That time went by too fast.
Robyn says
AGE ME!!!
Id love to just freeze time for a little bit! My son is six months old, and I just know this baby stage is going to fly by! A bit more time to savor his smiley chubby baby goodness would be great!!
Rebecca @This Nest is Best says
AGE ME! I’d be seven again :)
Tracy says
AGE ME! I just turned 40 on March 1st–with which I am completely okay–but I’d love a “do-over” of my 20’s. I would definitely not be in such a hurry to be a grown-up and make more time to travel and have fun!
SSJ says
AGE ME!
I’m going to be the outlier and say that I would age myself a couple decades. I’m an old soul (at heart) and would like to enjoy life as an old soul in real life. Surrounded by family, good food, and lots of bright color.
maria says
AGE ME! I am 22, and I would love to be 17 again when I first met my (now) husband…its so amazing to be married, but the first time butterflies still make me blush!
Mia says
AGE ME! I really like my mid-30s, but I am looking forward to retirement: gardening, traveling, etc.
Steph says
AGE ME! I would go back to being 7…my favorite year. Not a care in the world, (lived on a farm and LOVED the wide open spaces) and my whole life would be ahead of me. I would right some wrongs and treasure those who are now gone.
Ruth B. says
AGE ME!! I think around 23.
jackie says
Age me. Not sure college days or puddle jumping days, its a toss up.
