So this is what it feels to turn 25!

 This post may sound more selfish because its about my Birthday! But here’s how the day of turning 25 went!!
I was greeted at 6:30am on a skype date with the Tetzlaffs (Thanks Rox and Aaron!), then an unexpected skype date with Maddie!! I went down for breakfast and the girls here had blown up balloons and painted signs that they put up on the table in the restaurant downstairs!! I was very surprised!! Someone made a joke to Fred, a worker at the Crystal, how he forgot the candle and sure enough a few minutes later he came with a tall candle in an ashtray! He lit it and they all sang Happy Birthday to me!

When I got to Smile the kids sang Happy Birthday to me and I was greeted with lots of hugs, which is not unusual. We left Smile a bit early and went to the Rock Classic Hotel to swim and have dinner there! I had brought brownie mix with me, so glad I did, and I borrowed an oven from a missionary’s house to bake them. We then had ice cream, and brownies for dessert back at the Crystal. To top off the day I had SO MANY amazing notes and birthday wishes through email and facebook!!

I think I'm going to like 25!! I had a WONDERFUL Birthday!!!  Below are a couple videos and photos of how the day went!
