Yet another year of my life comes to an end and a new one begins!
On Tuesday, I turned the ripe young age of 26. I'm not one to enjoy birthdays, unless they are for others. I do not like being the center of attention, I don't like accepting gifts, and I'm way too emotional to have so many people care about me.
I can honestly say, this was the first birthday in a really like time that I enjoyed so much that at the end of the day, I was sad to see it come to an end.
There wasn't even anything too special about it, but it was completely fantastic.
The boyfriend, (yes, that's right, we're are officially boyfriend/boyfriend status) came over the night before, because he wanted to be there the morning of my birthday to be one of the first to wish me a special day and to give me amazing thoughtful gifts.
That day I cleaned my house and my yard, got a couple of errands done, had a special delivery, and cooked a lovely dinner for my famjamily. The family was slightly frustrated that I cooked and cleaned for my birthday, but quickly realized how happy it makes me feel, so they embraced it.
I had so many phone calls, texts, facebook messages, etc... I am slightly anal and wrote every single person a private message back thanking them for the thoughtful messages and checked in on their lives. So not only did I have a great birthday, I had a great time catching up with old friends.
Anyways, enough about that, here are some pictures from the day:
The boyfriend made me breakfast.
Flowers from the boy.
Beatles Print from the boy.
Special Delivery from Amazon. Love them! I pre-ordered this book and was thrilled to get it one I was home.
My cousin Jessica. Teaching her how to be country.
My cousin Matt. Teaching him tree-climbing techniques.
Anyways, thanks to everyone in my life who has made this past year happen. Here's to a great 26th year.
