Birthday Surprise

Getting to celebrate your birthday for the first time when you're 25 felt like being in an episode of the Outer Limits. Totally surreal! And I have to give a gigillian thumbs up to my very good friends for throwing me that surprise party last month. Ariella! Sara! THANKS! Ariella had the party at her house and Sara did a lot of prep. Sara and her friend made a gigantic 3-TIER CAKE! I couldn't believe my eyes. And the theme was pretty autumn as you can see from the pictures. The entire time I was thinking about how everyone gets one day out of the year to celebrate themselves and I missed out on that for 24 years. Wow I got jipped. But more than anything I felt absolutely and incredibly loved by my sisters who felt enough compassion to think they should throw me a party. You really didn't have to but I'm definitely glad you did! I'd put it #1 of my favorite days of this year but I think my baptismal day tops it. So then its #2! I love you guys!

Thanking Hubby for the messager, snuggie, and new phone.

So after my party I now look forward to all the birthdays that come. I may have missed 24 years but I have a lot more years than that to make up for it. Hurray!
