***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.

I’m 30 and I love it. Welcome to a great decade Sherry!
Katherine says
AGE ME!
I’m sure Sherry appreciates your choice of words John… ;-)
Good question. As I hit the end of the 20s, I have to say I love my life right now. But I just might be tempted to go back and give my 16-17 year old self a redo. I was a little watchacall “boy crazy” and I wish I could have spent that energy and enthusiasm on something more awesome!
Ginger says
AGE ME!
I’d go back to 18. Such a fun and carefree time!

AGE ME~ I LOVE being 27! Would not go back :-) Enjoying this journey of life!

Carol says
AGE ME
I’d pick 29 because that’s when the first of our kids was born and then we’d get to relive the joys (and challenges) of raising them (had a second when I was 31) again. Time flies and they’re approaching the college years. My family gets to go back in time with me, right? :-)
Cheryl D. says
AGE ME! I would go back to 22. It seems I had more free time back then.

AGE ME! I like being 27!
Katie Young says
AGE ME! With every passing year I get to know myself better. So while it’s tempting to want to relive my mid-twenties for the adventures and a chance to do some things over, I’d stay right where I am — turning 35 in two months!
Happy Birthday Sherry!

AGE ME!! I think I would would back to my late 20’s! That’s the age I feel!

AGE ME
I’d freeze time right now at 26. My babies are still little, I’m still young enough to remember how to have a good time, yet old enough to roll my eyes at teenagers :)
MacKenzie says
AGE ME! My 30s are great, but I would enjoy going back to my 20s and spend some quality time with my family and friends who I seemed to miss as the decade swirled past.
Suzi Moore says
AGE ME! I love reading what others have said – about 7-11 again sound good – how innocent everything is and how big your dreams are. I would NOT like to be 13-25 again…..too much worry in my world. I’m 41 right now – and love this age…old enough to appreciate things, still young enough (and in shape) to do everything I want to. I’m knee deep in kids right now and their activities, but I wouldn’t change a thing :)
Shannon says
Age me!
I’m pretty content at 24 :) happily married, renovating our first home and looking forward to a future dog (& kids – someday).
Loren says
Age Me! 28 seems like a good age. Old enought to be respected, but young enough to exercise without so much pain.
Heather B. says
AGE ME!
I love being 31…and I’m becoming an official mama in a few weeks, so best year EVER!
Laurie says
AGE ME! – I love where I am right now, 28!!
Clarissa says
AGE ME? Right where i am at 33. While my younger days were awesome and carefree, and im pretty sure i’ll age like a fine wine – enjoying where i am right now is great. Nothing like the wisdom ive gained at this age, and the ability to act like i’m still a kid with my two year old and fiance. So I dont need to change it, because I know now, thats its just fine to act like a kid and a wise adult at any age. Happy 30th Sherry – its a fun time!
Sara says
AGE ME!
I’m digging the age I’m at now…24.
