I'm a quarter of the way through my life

On Sunday (June 1st) I turned 25. Sometimes I feel old when I find out people I remember as like seven year olds are graduating high school but most of the time I still feel young. My birthday stuff started out on Thursday when I got a beautiful fruit bouquet from my sister Lauren delivered to me at work. Friday I received the movie "Dragonfly" and the book "Eat, Pray, Love" in the mail from Lauren. I'm a third of the way through the book and it is amazing so far. Saturday Russ and I went over to Heather and Christian's and had a Board/Video Game Olympics. It was a lot of fun playing games like Operation, Twister, MarioKart, Life, Pass the Pigs, etc. I (of course *wink*wink*) was the ultimate champion of our first ever Game Olympics! I got a small trophy and everything! We went to dinner at Azteca and we were all wearting are bright green dealer visor's because one of the rules was you couldn't take it off or you would lose points. Everyone was looking at us like we were crazy especially me with my big blue feather boa. Russ made sure to mention a few times that they needed to bring out the big sombrero and sing to me, which they did as soon as Russ got up to go to the bathroom =). Heather and Christian got me a pair of Victoria Secret Pink sweats (so soft and comfy) and a slushy maker with syrup and an extra cup. Russ gave me my present on Saturday, a beatiful sliver dragonfly with diamonds for the tail and in the wings. Sunday I went over to my mom's for dinner. She barbequed steak, chicken and hamburgers. She got me two shirts, lots of my favorite candies and some really cute beachy looking candles. The last stop on my birthday stuff will be tomorrow (June 5th) when I finally get my dragonfly tattoo! I'm super excited but also super nervous. More on how that goes later.

Happy Birthday LeeLee. I'm sorry for calling you so early in the morning on your birthday. I meant to call back later in the day. I know you had talked about getting a tattoo for a long time and have wondered if/when you were going to do it. Where are you going to have it put? I hope everything goes smoothly tomorrow!

I am so excited for your tattoo. But nervous for you. You'll do great and it will look amazing. Come and show me ASAP when you're done.

I think the game olympics was amazing :)

Heather and I posted comments at the exact same time, weird! So I guess she's not going with you...is Russ?
