Birthday Fun!!

So this past week was my big 25th birthday, yay!! Ok, really I am not excited because I know that I am not only half way to 50, but a quarter of a century! It was a really good and long celebrated birthday which was not to shabby! Last wednesday the 18th my mom and step-dad took me out to dinner to Texas Roadhouse and it was DELICIOUS, that is on my top 5 restaurants. The next day was the big day the 19th and I went to work and my cute friends at work bought me lunch from Italian Village and bought me a cake and cupcakes, and they sang me Happy Birthday! After work I met my fiance and his parents and also my sister and brother-in-law at the RV show and then we went to dinner and Ruby River, another one of my favs. My cute fiance said that he wanted to give my present to me after the weekend because he said he was going to be in the Dog House. Well I am still a kid at heart and could not wait so he gave my present to me and it was a new GUN!! YAY!! I think I will buy him a vacuum for his birthday, JK honey!! My 2 sisters gave me gift cards to my favorite store Buckle and my mom spoiled me and bought me 2 shirts, a skirt and some new levis. My future in-laws gave me my Tiara for my wedding (which I got a while ago to wear for my bridals) and some cute soaps and decorations for our house.

The birthday continued into the weekend where we went up and stayed at our favorite camping spot East Canyon in some condos and got some DELICIOUS food! We got up there friday night and we had chili verde and Shaylee made me the best cake in the world and we played a fun candy game that we almost had a brawl in. It was a really fun night and a good night to hang out with friends and family. Saturday night we had Navaho tacos (which was Shaylees request since it is her birthday today!!) and they were SO good. We hung out and played Wacky Sixes, anybody that hasn't played that and wants an addictive game go and get that, you will be playing for hours!! Sunday we got up and kinda relaxed and then me and Brandon went to my dad's house where we clebrated my dad's, grandma's(which is today as well) and my birthday. We had some enchilada cassrole that my step-mom cooked and I got a gift certificate to Macy's and I can't wait to spend the money! I had a really good birthday and thank you to everyone that I celebrated it with, I love you all!!!

Let me tell you a little bit more about me and Brandon. We met in November 2006 and dated for a couple of months and then went our separate ways for about 8 months. We met up again in August 2007 and have been dating ever since. We got engaged on October 11th 2008 at my Hunters Safety shooting test (I know you are probably wondering what the heck I am doing, but it is quite fun)! Before I met Brandon I wasn't really an outdoorsy kinda gal, but I got likin the outdoors pretty quick! We then bought a house in Clinton at the end of October 2008 and we fixed it up a little and Brandon is now living in it, I have to say that I am a little jelous that he gets to stay there and I don't!



This past weekend was, as you all know, Valentines Day! I think all guys dread this day, but this year was mine and Brandon's first year together so I was lovin it! We actually celebrated the night before by going out to dinner to my favorite place Olive Garden and I got a Wii Fitness! Brandon had to work so I just kinda stayed at our house and lounged all day. That night we played the Wii with one of our good friends and watched a movie. It was a good first Valentines with my man!
