The BIG 25!!!

Maia and I, getting ready to blow out ALL 25 candles!! That is a LOT of candles. Megan informed me that I am now a 2 pack candle girl...kind of depressing huh? She had to put them in the ice cream because the pie was too hot still and would have melted the candles.

So yesterday was my 25th birthday! Pretty crazy when you stop and think about it...I still consider myself 19 or 20 to be honest! Anyway, David had a HUGE anatomy exam today, so he was pretty stressed out yesterday, which means, we didn't get to do any birthday celebrating together (that will come this weekend). But I am so thankful for wonderful friends who care about me and wanted to make my day special. My friend Megan was especially sweet and took over the job of my mom for the day--she took me shopping, out to lunch, took care of Maia, and then made David and I dinner so I didn't have to cook. Of course, she asked me before hand what my favorite meal was and cooked everything to perfection (as usual!). Some of my other friends in the neighborhood had a little party/get-together for me in the afternoon, complete with brownies, ice cream and fruit salad. So it really was a great day...I felt pampered and loved the whole day. And now I get to celebrate it all over again with David this weekend....not such a bad set-up if you ask me! But thank you so much to all of my friends--you guys are the greatest and I don't know how I'd survive dental school without you!
