*Heppy Birthday ME!

*Heppy was a typo. It's still early, what can I say? It seems like a fun word to *say though, so we'll go with it.

*Not like I said it enough times to decide it's fun to say, and I know you didn't repeat it a few times too, just to make sure. Who does that??

*I'm done using *'s now.

Yesterday was a great day! First of all I wanted to thank everyone for the birthday wishes! An especially big thanks to those of you (lots!) who texted me early in the morning. See, I'm not a morning person and I don't think that I ever will be...so, yesterday morning, just like the rest, my alarm was going off and I was snoozing. Okay, I won't lie...I have two alarms and they were both going off and I was snoozing both of them at the same time.

Side note--This is a pretty involved task, in case you were wondering. I set the alarms about 20 minutes apart and then have them go off at different times, so basically every 3-4 minutes, something is making noise.

Another side note--My neighbors probably hate me, and Trav isn't a fan but I honestly don't hear them as well as others do. Every morning I make up some crazy way to add the noises to my dream and that way I don't even know they're going off. I've cafefully constructed a way to simply press the snooze button without moving anything except a few fingers.

So anyway, yesterday I not only had two alarms that I was avoiding, I also had all of the texts from you coming in about every 2-3 minutes.

Needless to say, I finally got up. So, thank you :)

I came to work to some pretty rad *new color* sharpies. Boring to some, but very high on my top birthday presents list!

Also, to a cute card, and some convenient post-its in a cute little case to keep in the car, or wherever I want to keep them! (Thanks Jenn!)

Later in the day we had a little cupcake/ice cream party. They were the cutest cupcakes I'd ever seen...they have TONS of flavors and make all sorts of pretty little designs! They're from a place called "So Cupcake" if anyone wants to check em out!

After work I tried to squeeze in a little shopping before Vegas. Me (plus) a *little* bit of shopping (equals)not a good idea. So, I plan to do some more shopping today. After all, I have plenty of time. We leave at 5 in the morning, tomorrow.

On a much more serious note...The next part of my birthday is something I would have never thought/hoped I'd be doing and I'm not quite ready to share exactly what the reason is yet...but I've decided I will share a little because we really need the prayers. At 7 last night, my Grandma had a blessing, because she is sick. Again, not a whole lot of information, but if you could take it and include her in your prayers, it would be sooo appreciated. :)

Then, after that, I went out to eat with Grandma, Grandpa, and Kassi.

It was a wonderful birthday! Thanks again everyone!
