A Star is Born

Ok so my birthday is tomorrow. Wohoo! I've got nothing planned.Nothing but this:

A Carvel cake. Ice cream and cookie layer frozen awesomeness...What else do you need??? I remember sneaking out to our freezer in the garage after school everyday for a week after birthdays to eat these cakes in little bites. Mmmmm.

Also, my present arrived in the mail two weeks ago. Its a book. I've been incredibly patient. It just sits on my dresser taunting me.

Which brings me to what I want for my birthday. I've been thinking lately about how some people were just born with it, and some people just weren't. And I know we all need to be full of hope and work on ourselves, and blah blah blah, but being born with it would have been easier. (Also, Maybelline can't make everyone pretty, it's just like paint on an old barn door. I'm just saying. )

So with that, here's what I wish I could get for my birthday:

Natural Patience
An eye for Style
A singing voice that doesn't make babies cry
Inability to fall down in public
An allergy to donuts
The ability to sit still
Comfort in silence. I HAVE to be talking if everyone's silent.

Things I am thankful I was born with-
A mind that's always thinking...even if it means I get bored easily
Good looks. Wavy Hair. Relatively clear skin.
Natural energy.
A healthy body.
A loving Mother and a smart Father and a hilarious Brother

Happy Birthday to Me! ...tomorrow

Scizophrenic Weather

This was our Saturday a week and a half ago. Notice the sweaters without coats? It was like 55 degrees.



I should have known it wouldn't last. It always snows near my birthday. Always. One year my sleepover birthday party was cut short at 8 am because there was a huge blizzard. Every year in high school my birthday was delayed or school cancelled.

So it came as no suprise that during church on Sunday, we got hit with some snow. There's so much energy in the air when a snowstorm is blazing outside. I felt like a kid stuck in school until the bell rang. Or in this case, until the closing song ended. All the kids in the hallways going to their classes were like- Did you see the snow???!!! After Church we got some good snowman making time in.






Hooray Hooray Hooray for snow! Today it's like 10 degrees. We are SO at the library today.
