22

This week I turned 22. The morning of my birthday Mark ditched his first class so we could spend the morning together. He went and got us Einstein's for breakfast and it was really fun to get to be together in the morning for a change. After he left for school I went down and went shopping with my mom. We hadn't gone together in a long, long time so it was really fun! I wanted a cutting mat, ruler and rotary cutter for sewing so we found some sweet deals and got those for a steal! It was so fun to spend the afternoon with her.

After that I went to work and although the girls were having an off day they were so cute and they all sang to me.

When I got back to my parents house after work everyone was busy getting dinner ready. We had yakisoba and gyoza; my favorite! After dinner we opened presents and ate cinnamon rolls. It was a great day.

The next day, Mark took me to see "Pirates of Penzance" at the Hale Center Theater in West Valley and we went to dinner and I got to open presents from him. He always does such a good job! He got me some new shoes, a shirt, jewelry, a purse and a giftcard so we can go shopping together. I love that boy. It was such a happy, happy birthday! Thanks everyone for the happy birthday texts and sweet comments on facebook. It made my day :)




Don't mind the presents wrapped in blankets...when we were little we used to play Santa and we'd get things from around the house and wrap them in blankets. Mom...and Mark decided that for the awkwardly shaped presents they'd just wrap them like we used to :)
