Birthday Celebrations

The birthday was a good 5 day celebration. It was fantastic. I can't believe I am 25. Not that 25 is old, but I just don't feel like I should be that old yet.... Good things though, lower insurance, and looking forward to the best year of my life as Kate and Amy like to tell me.
Thursday Ash, Erica, Kristen and I went to see Rascal Flatts. Such a great concert and WAY better weather than last year. (thank goodness)
My kids at school were so sweet. They were so excited it was my birthday. They all pitched in and got me my favorite flowers (gerber daisies), Diet Dr. Pepper and Starburst. They see me consume way too much of that. They made me the cutest cards and some brought gifts. They are so stinking cute, I just love 'em.


Friday night we went to dinner at my fav. place- the Gecko. We spent the rest of the evening with some of the clasiest people in Arizona, let's just put it that way. I wasn't as lucky as I had hoped.. ha ha! Don't worry, Dave is now an official member.......
Saturday family birthday lunch at Mia's.
Saturday night Kristen and I went and saw Kellie Pickler in Queen Creek. Man, concerts there are the best. There is not a bad seat in the whole place. I even got my tickets for the Phil Vassar (my all time fav country artist) in December. 3rd row AND a meet and greet. Pretty much the luckiest girl in the world right now. My sisters, mom and a few friends are coming too. It will be a perfect evening. Can't wait!!! Oh, and Kellie was so much fun. Didn't know many of her songs but she is a great performer!
When I was little I LOVED Hello Kitty. I pretty much set the trend. The only difference is when I was little, she was no where to be found besides like little nick nacks at It's A Small World (member that store Kate and Al in Superstition mall- they once accused me of stealing a Hello Kitty wallet too) or Sanrio- Anyway, Kate made me the cutest cake. It was sooo yummy too. She is becoming quite the Betty Crocker. Our whole family is suffering from her new little cake hobby! :)
Me and my favorite little baby brother in the whole wide world. I really think he is the coolest!

Monday night Gavin, Sar and little Lidy came over to visit. Is she not the cutest little chunky monkey in the world? I think I am in love with her- I really think she gets cuter each time I see her. Her cheeks are too kissable. It is funny to have a little baby in my house.. my whole fam goes nuts. You guys should come over more often.

Diamondbacks

One of the kids in my class gave me 2 tickets to the Diamondbacks game Friday as an early birthday gift. How cute is that?Amy and I went and had a blast. We are big fans of the men in baseball uniforms. Our seats were great and the Diamondbacks won!
Eric Byrnes-very cute

Happy Birchday Abs- the big 2-2

Our fam celebrated Al's birthday at Oreganos and came home for some yummy cake Kate had made. I looked everywhere for a Zack Efron poster but found this folder. Enjoy the Forever 21 card Al.
Friends dinner at Joe's farm Grill- gotta love the Winchester..
