Getting Old?

It's almost my birthday! I love my birthday so much - it's my second favorite holiday. Most people hate having a birthday (i.e. Josh) and some people hate getting old. However, I absolutely, positively love my birthday. I don't even mind getting old - many people have been denied the gift of growing old and I want to embrace it. There are so many things I look forward to as my life keeps going, that it's exciting to have another birthday.

Josh and I went out to eat during the CRAZY Midwest storms Saturday night. We met our friends Jordan and Sarah and went out to eat at Olive Garden. LOVE that place. And it was nice because we haven't been out to eat on a Saturday night for a long time so it was nice all around. We barely missed a large storm bringing high winds, downpours, thunder and lightening, but the lights did flicker on and off at the restaurant and we watched the rain blow outside. We got to enjoy the night though, and Josh even liked my drink:

Today was somewhat nice out, so Josh left early this morning and went and got me a present. I have no idea what it is...but I'm pretty excited <3

I got a t-shirt from my Mom from Raygun that I LOVE (thanks Mom!) and mostly everyone else helped pay for our amazing trip to Florida so I won't be getting much else and that's completely fine - the trip was more than enough!

There are only 5 weeks left of school - holy moly! Track has been going well...the first few weeks it was so nice out, and now the weather has taken quite a dip and most of our meets have been somewhat chilly and windy. We have two meets this week - Monday & Friday, so that will take up most of my week. I'm not sure I'll be coaching next year since I'll be knee deep in grad school, but we'll see. It's a lot of fun and I love being with the girls. Hopefully the next few weeks go by fast - I am MORE than ready for summer break!
