today is my thirty-first birthday! 

similar top || similar skirt || similar flats || similar necklace

in anticipation of my big day, S and i shot these fun photos last weekend. what is it about birthday balloons that make you feel like a kid again? they’re just the best! (even despite the fact that they really didn’t want to cooperate during the shoot).

we’re currently in orange county this morning after my half-sister’s high school graduation last night, so i’m excited to take our time making our way back down the coast. we have plans to stop by one of my favorite local spots to grab a bite to eat and hopefully sneak in a little shopping before my birthday dinner at vintana (my favorite!) tonight. i’m sharing bits and pieces of our day on instagram and snapchat (iamshawnaleeann) so come follow along in all the birthday fun!

cheers to another amazing year full of health, happiness, making memories, and fun -and most importantly to the year that i’ll become S’s wife!
