Joyeux Anniversaire and Bonne Fete a moi

Happy Birthday Jennica!

Jordan loves my birthday too!
I don't know what it is, but I LOVE birthdays. Maybe because I was young in my grade and had to wait 6 months longer than anyone else to be 12 and be in YW, or maybe it was just so terribly difficult to wait until I was 16 so I could date and drive. This year was one of my favorite birthdays ever. I skipped my class, painted my nails. And we went out to dinner with our besties The Tremblays and The Osbornes. 


Before dinner though, Brian had me hide in our room while he set up my gift! I was so confused what he could possibly "set up." I thought it must be a bookshelf and I wasn't sure that I wanted a book shelf for my birthday. But Brian, like always, came through with the best birthday gift ever... a keyboard.. apartment size! I don't know how he always knows what to get me. But I was obviously thrilled!

Brian surprised me also with the best birthday/halloween cake I have ever had. It was so cute I didn't even want to eat it! I must have the best husband in the world. He is so darn creative.



Later we had a mini birthday party with close friends. Everyone sang Happy Birthday and I got to even blow out candles on my beautiful cake.




Yay for a successful birthday and being 22!

october!

We went camping with Cass and Ben before it turned winter.

Cassie and Ben turned out to be the Red team. And we turned out to be Blue.








There were so many bugs. These nasty caterpillars were some of the uninvited guests. After a few minor hysteria sessions, we ended up going to Walmart to find bug spray to de-bug our campsite. :)





Then it was Brians birthday! We celebrated at Cheesecake! mmmm best restaurant ever. I can't believe this is our third set of birthdays together. HAPPY BIRTHDAY 24TH BEST FRIEND! I love you!





We have been hanging out with the Osborne's lately. I love having married friends! This is us, cassie and ben, and jordan and britton playing bocce ball. Such a good activity for a Sunday afternoon :)


 Then we went to the Haunted Forest for a nice fall/halloweeny activity. Supposedly it's the top 5 in the nation! It was terribly frightening!



 I love October! Especially today! My birthday!
