My 21st Birthday Weekend - Part 2

It shouldn't have taken me this long to write another update on my birthday weekend, but it has. I just received a little motivation from Jamie Stavenger and knew I better post something before I left for So. Cal. on Wednesday. Thanks Jamie! : )


On Sunday, October 5th, Adrian and I went to church together and then came home and packed up leftovers from the party for a picnic! Adrian and I went to Buckley Cove and it was wonderful. I had never been there, but it was a great spot for a picnic and right on the Delta. Here is a picture of Adrian by the Delta ---- he loved the picnic spot I chose!


By the time we walked down to the water, back up again, and ate our lunch, we left around 4 p.m. We decided to see Fireproof later that evening and then have dinner afterwards. Fireproof was amazing! I wanted to see it again and again. I left the movie speechless. It was fabulous and everyone should see it. We went to Casa Flores after the movie for a late dinner and had a great evening. The next day was my birthday and boy was I ready!! I will post another update of my brithday weekend once I get back from So. Cal.
Have a great Thanksgiving!

My 21st Birthday Weekend - Part 1

I'm FINALLY finding time to blog! I've had a lot of free time, but it has taken me a while to gather all of the pictures together. My birthday weekend started on October 3rd and lasted until Monday, October 6th, my birthday! Adrian was able to stay for all 4 days and it was wonderful. That was the longest we'd ever been together so it was really nice.



I was having my housewarming/birthday party on Saturday at 2 p.m. and had a lot to do to prepare! My mom made all of the food, which was great (!), so she definitely did most of the preparation. Here are some pictures from my party:






Adrian and I in front of my house......I LOVE this picture!



My yummy cake!



The front of my house w/ my lovely, purple ballons : )



Me, "inhaling the flame", as Adrian would say, hehe. I look SO lame in this picture.... : P




My birthday was SO, SO wonderful. It was beyond everything I thought it would be. I had such a wonderful time being with all of my friends, together, in one place, and Adrian went above and beyond anything I ever expected. Among all of the wonderful gifts he bought me, he gave me a beautiful locket. I was so ecstatic! I've always wanted a locket and I absolutely love it. I would have been happy with just a card, but it was all wonderful and very sweet.




The day ended with Becky and Justin stopping by, which was very nice!
