Happy Birthday!

I turned 24 this past Thursday. It was probably one of my most favorite birthdays. Even though birthdays aren't exciting as you get older, there's still a little something magical about your birthday. Here are the highlights of my 24th birthday (these are in the order in which they happened so as not to show favorites):

  1. Waking up to balloons at the bottom of my bed from my friend (and roommate Tiffany) and a message from my dear mother

  2. Going on a long bike ride and talking on the phone to Libby


  3. My roommates made me pancakes for breakfast


  4. My coworkers brought me cupcakes


  5. My missionaries gave me a card and a little treat


  6. My childhood best friends, Katie and Holly, both called me


  7. Clark brought me a "Get Well" balloon and chocolate


  8. My friend Spencer sent me flowers


  9. Going on a picnic with my favorite people and eating communal style and laughing till I cried


  10. Visiting with Kendall, who gave me bread pans and a garlic press...just what I wanted!


  11. My dad called and left a message of him singing "Happy Birthday"


  12. Kelley, my older sister, sent me a really nice card telling me how much she likes me.
So, that was my day! I just feel really lucky to have so many people that love me :)
