a BiRtHdAy WeEkEnD

...Well it's official, i finally turned the big 19. Man, its kinda crazy to think that 19 years have passed... i feel quite old. now, if i was REALLY good at posting, i would totally have pictures from when i was born till now, but i don't... so here are some pics and highlights from this weekend.

Thanksgiving was SO much fun! Thursday was the turkey trot, where i watched the little munchkins while shelb and katie ran! also, i helped save a girls life... NO big deal. (let me tell ya, it PAYS to be a lifeguard!) then we all went to the church and had a big thanksgiving dinner! :) it was sooo much then. after, we played some speed and hung out with the grandkids, then went over to shelby's where katie, shelby, and i watched "just wright." pretty cute movie, not gonna lie.

Friday (my birthday!) came and bright and early (okay 9 am). shelb and i went to target. i bought a super cute bag (pictures coming later, PROMISE) and then we met up with katie, livvy, and gracie and shopped till we dropped. it was so much fun. we got lots of good deals and were VERY tired. then i came home and slept, showered, and went ice skating and watched elf that night with a bunch of friends. great night! After, i came home and felt SUPER sick which totally stunk.

Saturday i drove to school where they sent me home for being sick. so i came back home, slept some more, then learned to play the ORGAN! (yeah, p.s. thats my brand new calling in the singles ward... kind of intense if you ask me!) after we ate pizza and then chandler and i went to target for some MORE birthday shopping. i have such a great brother! (smile) then ended the night with some qt hot chocolate and watched miss congeniality 2!

It has been such an amazing weekend. I have the greatest family and friends ANYONE could ask for. I am so grateful for EACH one of them. O yeah, i almost forgot...
