***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.

Lauren says
AGE ME!!!!
I’m actually happy with the age I am now, 23! I got married, got an adorable puppy (who I think needs to be friends with Burger) and have a great life!! Although the gift card would improve my houses’ age! : )
Amy says
AGE ME — I would love to be 9 again…4th grade was the best! I had the best teacher, read books like crazy, and just had fun.
Ginny says
Age me!
If I could go back, I would be 18 and do college completely differently this time! …maybe worry a little less about my tan and more about my choice of major :)
Katie Abel says
AGE ME! I turn the dirty thirty on Sunday and could really use a sweet birthday gift…like $300 worth of yummy C&B stuff! Happy Birthday Sher-dog
Ashley says
Age Me!- I would like to be 40 years old. I’m currently 25 and I’ve heard that 40 is the new 30 with a lot more money! I would love to be settled in a home, with 2 kids and extra time for travel.
Tara says
AGE ME! I’d be boring and like to stay the same age I am now :)
Cindy says
AGE ME! Back to 34 – just old enough – just young enough!
Kelly Myers says
Age Me…. 26 might be fun for a few minutes… While pregnant with my littlest kids again, and to enjoy them all as babies again (and remind myself to take more home movies!!)
Meredith says
AGE ME!!! I think I would be happy to freeze right now at 32. I love spending time with my little dude and I am feeling more confident then ever in myself and my marriage!
Sarah says
AGE ME!!! I’m loving 33 right now!
Marcy says
AGE ME!! I would like to be 36 for a long time. By then I would have finished a masters, kept a successful career going, finished all the to do’s on my newly acquired fixer upper and have some time to relax!!!
Aizza says
AGE ME!
Would like to be 21 again to go back to college…but I’m loving being 29 and looking forward to my 30’s.
Lisa says
AGE ME! Life is good right now, so I am happy at 36 :)
Melody says
AGE ME! I think I’d go back just a little less than a year and re-live 25.
emansfield says
AGE ME! I’d love to return to college. It was super fun and now that I know how hard the real world is, I’d work a lot harder in college. Straight As baby!
Heather says
AGE ME! I would love to be 3 again…no school, all play all day. But I really can’t complain about where I am now. HAPPY BIRTHDAY! Love your blog!
Jess says
AGE ME! I’d go back just two years, to 30. It’s the year I got married, finished my master’s program, and started house hunting with my husband. I’d love to relive the moments leading up to our wedding – savor them a little more, stress a little less – and I’d have a different, more demanding lens while looking at houses. Plus, now that we have a baby, I’d love a chance to enjoy long, uninterrupted sleep!
Veronica says
AGE ME! I’m pretty happy with my current age right now..happily married and expecting our first baby!!
Debbie says
AGE ME!! – I’d love to stay at 25.
wendy says
AGE ME!
I adore being in my mid-40’s and still having little ones–little hands making smudges everywhere, little feet going pitter patter, little voices shrieking with delight over anything and everything. I feel incredibly blessed and incredibly lucky! And knowing they still have the whole world in front of them and all of their dreams to follow makes me smile BIG!
Connie says
AGE ME!! Maybe I would try 30 again and NOT gain weight over the years and make some better parenting decisions!!
Ashley in NC says
AGE ME!
My 20s have been incredible. I just bought my first house and am so excited about decorating.

AGE ME! I’d love to go back to 20. In college, no worries and having the time of my life! Whoop!
April says
AGE ME! I’d love to be 21 again!!!
Jenny says
AGE ME pleeease!!!
I’d like to go back to 20 / college age – so fun and “carefree”..
Betsy Hayes says
AGE ME! I love being 27! It’s great!
Shannon Brady says
Age Me! I would go back to be 23 again…I’d just met my husband and we were dating, spending weekends with our friends and at the beach house in the summer…my dad was still alive…I’m happy now with two children and my dear husband, but oh how fun and carefree that time was!
Jamie says
AGE ME! Happy Birthday Sherry! I just turned 30 as well – it would be great if I could stay this age forever. :)
Wendy says
AGE ME! I’m going to be 33 soon and I love it. I’m married to my best friend and we have 2 beautiful children, friends and family that love us. Grateful and content right where I’m at!
Melissa B. says
AGE ME! It’s hard to say.. I’m creeping up on 30 myself, and I can’t say that my 20’s have been anything spectacular. I’ve heard so many people say that they were so much happier in their 30’s and 40’s; calmer, more comfortable with themselves, their accomplishments, and didn’t feel the pressure to prove something or get somewhere like people in their 20’s do. Buuut…. I wouldn’t mind keeping the body I had at 23!! :-)
Erika says
AGE ME!!! I would love to be 9 again–running around the backyard with my little bro in the sunshine, not worried about bills, laundry, dinner, dishes, or anything for that matter. Ahhhh…those lazy days of summer with my BFF little bro….LOL!
AEOT says
AGE Me!! I love being the age I am now (34). I love my job, my husband, my kiddo (plus the one that is almost here), and I’m so happy in my current life, I can’t imagine going back. My 20s were fun, and I’m sure that retirement will be fun too, but even with all the responsibilities and fears that come with being a (relatively) new parent, I love where I’m at!!
Stacy says
AGE ME! I would love to fast forward a couple of years to 38! My current age is good…but I am ready to be done with my MBA!
Allison H. says
AGE ME! I think I would love to be 10 again – things were so simple!
Danielle says
AGE ME!!
I’d be 18 all over again. Old enough to do things on my own, but not having the responsibilities I have now. What a great age! :)
Amanda H. says
AGE ME!! I’d like to be 18 or 24 again but only if I get to keep the knowledge I have now! ;)
Christie says
AGE ME!
I’d be 12 so I could be news anchor of my 8th grade class again!
Laurie says
AGE ME!
I would go back to 28. Just old enough to be through the drama of the younger years, but young enough to do plenty with still some wild abandon.
Ryan N. says
AGE ME….Keep me where I am @ 30. Having kids, buying a house, loving the job!
Suzy Smith says
AGE ME!!!! I’d probably return to the age of being 8-10, where I “played” all of the stuff that I do now. It was much funner when it was make believe.
Casie says
Age Me!!! Age 21…the year I got married!
KFehn says
AGE ME! I think I might like to go back to 29 and experience my first child all over again. 13 years & 3 kids later, I wish I would’ve known then what I know now…would have cherished moments more and maybe relaxed a little. I would love to hold them as babies just once more. But I’m certainly not ungrateful for where we are now…I love these ages too!
Christine says
AGE ME!….
I think I would stay right where I am. I’m 25 and its been a great year so far!
Andrea says
AGE ME! I would like to go to a retirement age, so that my hubby and I can travel the US by RV, and sit back and laugh at my kids as we watch them tackling parenthood and the shenanigans they gave us!
Shannon says
Age Me! I think going back to 17 would great….senior in high school – so many possibilities for the future!
Megan says
AGE ME!
I don’t think I’d change my age – things are great now! Although it would be nice to have no responsibilites again! :)
Christine says
Age me!!!
If I could, I would go back to being 16- there was so much I didn’t appreciate back then and sometimes I regret not enjoying those special and simple moments.
Aimee C. says
AGE ME!
I think I would go back about 7 or 8 years and truly try to enjoy my kids being babies. It really does go by that fast!
Julie says
AGE ME!
I’d go back to my mid-twenties when my babies were babies.
Lauren says
AGE ME!
I would love to go back to when I first graduated from college, knowing what I do now!
