***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.

Sarah says
AGE ME! I’m really loving mid-thirties with my best friend (husband) and little one, but late twenties were great as well. Wouldn’t mind being 28 again – newly married, comfortable in my career; it was a good age!

AGE ME! I’d go back to 18, the summer before I started college.

I would love to return to age of 18 so I could change my college major to something more exciting.
Jenn says
Ok so AGE ME if you wanna. I’m 31 now, but If I could pick my age, I would probably pick 26 again. That was my age when I first became a mommy and it was so blissful/whirlwind-ey/wonderful/exhausting! It was definetely a whole new chapter just beginning and I love that!

Jessica Shivers says
AGE ME
I am 24 now, but I think that 25 will be my best year! I am excited for it to begin, and think I will be sad for it to end. I will miss my early 20’s. But hopefully every year will be the best one yet!

Rebecca says
AGE ME
Lindsay says
AGE ME!
And 33 is pretty darn good, so I just might stay where I’m at. Although I still think of my age as 31, so maybe it would be easiest to go back a couple years?

Age me!
Carolyn says

I always say 22 was ‘my’ year…not that any year has been bad since then, but I was able to do some amazing things at the end of college, the summer after college and my first ‘real job’ so I’d relive that!!
Mike Thompson says
AGE ME!
I’d like to return to age 29. The age I was when my daughter was born. I’d like to relive those precious moments. They flew by so stinkin’ fast. Cherish them while they are young!

Ashley says
AGE ME!!
I know it sounds crazy… but I can’t wait until I’m retired! Getting to vacation whenever I want, hang out at breakfast places with the other retired folks, be that old adorable couple that still holds hands, knit and just be old and awesome… can’t wait!

AGE ME!
I would love to be a kid again, between the ages of 4 and 10. Before bills and adult responsibilities…wouldn’t it be nice?
Miriam says
Age me!
would love to re-do some of the mistakes of the early twenties, but not if it means missing out on the current happiness.
Meredith says
AGE ME!! I think knowing what I know now, I would like to return to 18 and redo the college years. I would totally choose a different major and career path. :)
ashe says
age me! I have the best of both worlds, as an eight year old trapped inside a 29 year old! I don’t think It will get any better than this!
Happy Birthday Sherry!

AGE ME! I would stay my age right now — 28, on the cusp of 29. For the first time in my life, I feel like everything’s falling into place. I have a great job, a wonderful husband, a beautiful place to live, and we’re having our first child in a couple of months. It’s a tremendously happy time!
