My Birthday!

On Friday, I turned 25. YESss! Now I can officially rent a car without ludicrous fees and can get cheaper car insurance! Not only that, but according to scientific research the frontal lobes of my brain are now fully developed. Very exciting news. :)

It was a great day...even though my bday makes me miss my family and friends in CA.

I brought mini cakes to work with me and shared them with the pre-schoolers and then I got to leave early! Since it was good Friday, there were hardly any kids there and I probably could have had the day off...but it seeing all those cute little faces definitely brightened my day. James had a surprise for me when I got home.....he had decided to take me out to dinner to a surprise place! I had an inkling that I new where we were going. There is only one place that we go out to eat lately....Little Fiesta. It's our favorite. What a surprise James! :) Little Fiesta never disappoints. James got himself a huge Dos Equis and I ordered a large peach margarita and we happily chowed down on our always hot-out-of-the-oven chips and our authentic burritos.

When we got home from dinner, James had ANOTHER surprise for me hiding in the oven. A bday cake made by him! Poor James was forced to buy two boxes of candles for the cake since the 24 pack was not enough....that's when you know you're getting old. The sweetest part of my day was that he sang happy birthday to me solo. The chocolate chip chocolate frosting was delicious. And we happily licked all of the candles like little kids.

Here's to being a quarter of a century old!
