Happy 24th Birthday to ME!!

Oh my, I cannot believe I am 24 already! Where is the time going?! This is just crazy.

Anyway, this year I had an amazing birthday. You see, I was supposed to work on my birthday but my friend at work was kind enough to take my shift so I wouldn't have to! Oh, it was wonderful because that meant NOT getting up at 5 in the morning on my birthday.

However, it WAS fast Sunday and I had to teach the lesson in Young Women's! (I know, total bust of a birthday kind of, but what do you do.) Because it was fast Sunday, that meant no breakfast in bed (totally stinks!) but it's okay because I got blessings, right? Haha. I pretty much spent the morning planning my lesson and waiting for my hubby to get up until I realized it was 11 and he was still asleep!! *gasp. So I had to go wake him up to remind him that it was my birthday and he was sleeping through it! Anyway, I then got ready, went to church, and taught my lesson. Then the partying began.

Ryan planned an amazing BBQ for me and it was really fun. Nate, Brooke, Gav, Lynne, Dave, Owen, Laura (Ry's aunt), and my friend Laura from nursing school and her hubby and little girl all came over for the event. We had hamburgers, bratwursts, watermelon, and most importantly a home-made ice cream cake!! Lynne really outdid herself on this one. It was so amazing!! Gotta love an ice cream cake!! After the party we played some games and I finally got Gavin to like me! (Best present ever!! haha) I had a great day! Thanks to everyone who came to celebrate with me!!
Yes, that really is 24 candles on that cake!!!
Dibs on top of the cake!!! So delicious!!

  3. Same thing happened to me. There were like 4 new posts! Also, I'm a bad person because I don't think I wished you a Happy Birthday. I'm glad you had a good one! That cake Lynne made looks fantastic... your hair is also looking fantastic these days.

    And... I felt special being mentioned in your birthday post... even if I don't really know how I ended up on the top of your cake. ;-)

    Love ya!
