Who's Got Birthday?

Today was my 25th birthday! Although I made it out to others that I really wasn't excited about turning a quarter of a century, I wasn't as upset as I was for my 23rd birthday. (Ever since I was little I'd always looked forward to being 15 and 23. When my 23rd birthday came around, I figured I didn't have much else to look forward to, as far as age numbers go that is.)

My day revolved around a lot of food. We had a potluck today at work that I planned; which I ate way too much at. After allowing my food to settle somewhat, I had a brownie and a glass of milk at about three. At 6:30 we went out for supper with our families (Brent, Sandy, Dalton, Mum, Dad, Brad) at Boston Pizza. Ate way too much for my entree. Then was enticed into thier "free" ice cream dessert. The waitress was super nice, and even wrote "Happy BDay" in carmel on the plate! I knew there was going to be cake at home, but I still ate it all!

The cake Mum and I picked out from the grocery store was yummy. After knowing that I wanted to be turning 23 again, she came up with a clever idea! Then when the store called her earlier (to get clarification "you want us to make a mistake, cross it out and write the correct age?") she decided to add the "quarter century"!

And, to top the whole day off, I got flowers! I was too worried about not dropping the cake when I came into the house after work tonight (I had to pick it up after work since the store was on my way home, and our house was where everyone was headed after supper); I didn't even realize the nice bouquet of roses on the table until after Justin had the cake and I had taken off my shoes. I originally thought there was two dozen, but he said to guess again. 25 roses! The exact same colour of roses he got me when he proposed on December 24, 2008, the last time I got flowers; and he remembered that! (I really love how he knows that I'm not the biggest fan of red roses, which was all they had made up into bouquets at the flower shop; so he bought the vase - which is lovely - bought the roses and with some assembly required put it all together!) He's a keeper!

My belly is (over) full of good food, got to spend time with family: it was the perfect day!
