The big 2 - 5

Yesterday was a big day for me. I turned 25! I kind of feel like a real adult now.

I had a fabulous celebration here's why:

24 hours owie free. He had a sleep over at Grandma's and I had a break
Dinner, California Pizza Kitchen just Treav and I
A little shopping
Carmel apple
Singing to loud music (one republic) in the car like the good old days
Watching Criminal minds all hours into the night
Sleeping a little later than usual
Treavor gave me a cute headband. He knows just my style
A calm and peaceful sacrament meeting
A nap
Yellow cake chocolate frosting
A new pair of shoes
Thanks everyone for the fabulous day!
