It's been SOOO long since I have written anything.
My life has become crazy! So many changes and things to share.
BUT for this post I wanted to say Thank You.
+++This is long and if you want to get to the thank you skip down+++
My 26th birthday this year was way more than just a turn into my "late" 20's it was a celebration of the last year.
For my 25th birthday, I guess you could say I had a mid-life crisis! I really did:) Ask my family...
I made lists of things I needed to do before I turned 25 and thought about all the things I hadn't done in my life and how lame I was and unsuccessful and boring and blah blah blah....
To recover from my depression my wonderful parents sent me to Disneyland! Haha:) It really helped.
Any who... :) Within my 25th year on earth SO much has changed.
I got a boyfriend.. I dumped him (I know you all hated him)
I got a promotion- LOVE IT
I got another boyfriend:)
Got Engaged!
Bought a condo
Getting Married.
Whoa!
So this year I woke up on Ocatober tense and was greeted by a cake pop and coffee from my big sister:)
Got to work and walked into the most amazing birthday display I have ever seen!
They had cards and balloons and cupcakes and cookies.... :)
I was overwhelmed with JOY! I have worked so hard to get my staff to like and respect me and this just showed how much they care. I love my team!
THEN later in the day my wonderful boss sent me the nicest email saying he was proud of me! I'm not sure if you have ever had a boos be proud of you but it's worth more than any amount of money or benefits. He took a chance on a young girl and he was proud of ME.
Holy Moly at this point I have totally given up on working and am just soaking in my day..
Ok ok let's just say I REALLY love my birthday and if you have ever come in contact with me September-October you would probably have heard about my day of birth.
THEN!!!! I get the most beautiful display of flowers from my fiance:) He's great.
THEN I come home and get ready because my man is taking me out... he won't tell me where but it could be burgerville and I would be jazzed!
He comes over and has more gifts for me:)
My wonderful future MIL and FIL and SIL and RIL (mother in law, father in law, sister in law, and Rory in law) got me a large amount gift card to MICHAELS! I love to craft!!
(I tried to add the picture but it wouldn't work)
So Chris comes and gives me gifts and we head to dinner..
I'm telling him all about my day and reading him posts from Facebook and texts and emails and I start to cry... VERY happy tears. But I can't stop, I am so overwhelmed with the shock of how much the Lord has blessed me. My life has totally turned for the better and I cannot believe it.
We get to dinner at Papa Haydns! What a great meal! I continue to talk about how blessed I fell and how God has had this plan for me my whole life and I finally get to see so much happening. I cry again.. and maybe make him cry too;) (don't tell him)
I am not writing to brag or boast so please don't take it that way.
++If you skipped start reading here++
I am saying Thank You for all of the notes and love and prayer and EVERYTHING on my birthday. It really made me see just how happy I am and lucky of a girl to find Chris and get to be married to him:)
My life is NOT perfect but it is perfect for me and I wouldn't want it any other way.
My friends and family are so wonderful! I am happy!
Thank you, Thank you, Thank you
You have no idea what your facebook post, long email, text message, card.... meant to me
