February 21st

That would be my birthday--just in case your wondering :) I know I already have...what, two birthday posts? But in an effort to try and cover all the highlights, I'm moving on to birthday post number three. Bare with me and be thankful I only have one birthday per year :D

YUM!
After my friends went home Tuesday morning, I got in a good dose of vitamin D while pointlessly attempting to burn a fraction of the calories I'd enjoyed the night before and justify the multiple slices of cake I knew were only hours away. Regardless of my eating habits that day, three miles in 40 degree weather with the sun shining felt gooooood!

Later in the afternoon, I sat down to a table full of family, coffee, and cake and enjoyed several hours of conversation and several cups of coffee. As my aunts, uncles, grandparents, and cousins arrived, I slowly began adding to my "birthday table" and with each unwrapped gift, I shifted everything around to assure everyone that despite my age and new found flexibility--I'm still a perfectionist at heart.

As much as I love the gifts, I love the people who filled this table even more!

After an evening skype session with my family in Oregon, I started to feel the effects that come with so little sleep and went to bed very glad that I didn't have to get up for school Wednesday morning!
