I'm 26!

My birthday was lovely!  Thank you to my friends and family who helped celebrate me on September 27th!  The celebration started the night before at our team meeting, where I opened gifts from my girlfriends and was encouraged and prayed for.  Then we ate yummy brownie sundaes--my favorite dessert--even over birthday cake!  On the morning of my birthday, my sweet husband got me my free Starbucks drink before I left for work at 6:45am!  He's so good to me.  Around 2pm at work I received a beautiful arrangement of flowers in a cute ceramic pumpkin--from Andy!  It has always been a romantical dream of mine to get flowers delivered to me at work... and so it happened!  My coworkers also surprised me with a HUGE and delicious birthday cake from Costco.  SO good!  (Have you ever had cake from Costco?  Amaaazing!)  After work I got a great spa pedicure and had a nice conversation with my good friend Amy.  Then Andy and I went to dinner at this great urban pizzeria and wine bar that I've been wanting to try out.  I spoke with my parents, my siblings, my grandfather, and a good friend... I opened lots of sweet cards, thoughtful gifts, and received three gorgeous flower arrangements... all in all it was a great day! 
Loving my sparkley toes!


My delicious mushroom pizza with goat cheese and spinach!

still feel like newlyweds... we are, right?

Make a wish!

A free dessert... freshly baked chocolate chip cookie with salted caramel ice cream.
