My 19th Birthday!!!

Ciao Famiglia,

     Here are some pictures from my birthday this last friday. I had a wonderful day! It was a good birthday. It was a little weird because I wasn't home with my family, but it was still good. I'm really glad Bub is here, that made it easier and feel more like my birthday. I love him so much. He, David, and their friend Barrett (sp?) called me at 12:02 AM on my b-day and sang to me. It was super sweet! So here are the pictures. They are a little out of order, but that's ok.

     So here's me and Bub at Cafe Rio. This was the second picture attempt of us two. The first one was the typical Jesse face and I got mad and made him take another one. So I feel like I got a lot accomplished with this one because I think we both look super cute!
     Ok, so this isn't the picture of Michelle, Heather, and I that I meant to put in, but I don't feel like re-writing/re-arranging the whole blog to stick a cuter picture of us in. So you guys just get to see how goofy we are :D But this was also at Cafe Rio. It was so nice of Heather to come down to eat dinner with me. It was good to see her!
     So, BYU students don't have wild parties or anything like that, but that doesn't mean we don't have crazy fun! Haha, we have awesome Rubix's Cube Tournaments. This is Jason and Jenni racing (best 3 out of 5) for the Ultimate Rubix's Cube. This is in my lobby. After I had dinner with the BFF's from home, I came back and all my friends were waiting to play games. It was super fun. But once this crazy tournament started, everyone was working on figuring out the Rubix's Cube. That's BYU for you! Go Cougars!!!
     Ok, so this is the Skyroom in the Wilk. I had already gotten lunch with Haley and Chelsea, but they didn't know that Jason and Karen were planning on kidnapping me (which I didn't know either, obviously). Ok, so here's the story. I got a call from Jason the night before asking if I could go over Anatomy with him at Noon because we were going to open lab at 1. I said sure. So I was in the library, and then all of sudden, he blindfolds me and then he and Karen put a sign on me that says "Kiss me, its my birthday" and a crown that said "Birthday Princess." Then they walked me all over Brigham Square and all around the Wilk (meanwhile, Karen is being hit on while she's escorting a blindfolded Birthday Girl around - guys are weird) And then we ended up in the Skyroom with Jason, Karen, and Jason's sister and nephew Harrison (who is so adorable). But it was super fun, even though I wasn't hungry. That was a highlight!
     Here's me and Chelsea in the Wilk Terrace for our ward activity. We had Pizza (which I didn't eat because I was eating Cafe Rio later) and then we played games and went down to the Bowling Alley which our ward rented out. It was super fun!
     Here's Jason and I at the Bowling Alley. He got a hair cut and it looks way good. I just wanted to put this picture in :D
     Here's my girls and I (Haley and Chelsea) at the Bowling Alley. Basically I hadn't bowled since I think I was like 13, so that was interesting at first, but I progressed. Of course the one time I got a strike, nobody saw. I was so mad, I was all excited and cheering for myself, and then I turn around to get some support and cheering from the team... nothing, everybody was looking at something on the table. I got over it though, it was mainly just funny that nobody saw.
     Here's Jesse, David, Cody, and I at Cafe Rio (I told you the pictures were out of order) Umm... so Cody's trying to grow a mustache. "Trying to" being the key phrase in that sentence. I'm not feeling it. But I just like this picture and I think its fun!

     So thanks to everyone for calling and wishing me a Happy Birthday! I was sad that I couldn't be with you all on my day, but that's ok, you were with me in spirit :D But I will see you in less than a month for Vanessa's shower!!! Yay!!!! I'm super excited. Awesome invitation P.S. Ann, it looks so good. And I love that picture of you Ness, so cute! Well I love you all, and I promise I will be better about updating the blog. Peace Out!!!
