29 Favourite Moments This Year

16th April 2017

Happy Birthday to me! Yes, today I head into my final year as a twenty-something (noooo!). As much as that terrifies me, I’m pretty happy because I LOVE birthdays. If you haven’t seen me counting down on Twitter to today, well, I have been. Also I like to have a ‘birthday week’, because one day just doesn’t seem long enough 😉 Also, isn’t this birthday card AMAZING???! The lovely El sent me it because she knows how much I adore MGG!
