My Birthday
Well I am now 23 years old. I’ll have to adjust to the age change. It seems that it takes about six months for me to remember the new age. When I was engaged (this would have been in December or so that year ) I said how I would be turning 18 in May and some of the girls teased me about Jon getting a real young one and it not being legal…since that would make me 17 and engaged.
Anyways, it was a great weekend. Jon did all the dishes.. or tried to keep up with them. It seems that we were overrun with dishes. I think it started Wednesday when we had the elders over. I had tons to do but I only got one load done on Thursday, and then Friday my birthday weekend began… so I didn’t do any dishes. Jon was a sweetheart and never complained about them.
It was a great weekend full of fun with my loved ones, cake.. we still have so much cake, and Del taco. I love Del Taco, plus their chicken soft taco’s are only $0.79 so it was a cheap dinner.
I went to a party Friday night and saw some friend’s from high school. It was strange to be married at a party full of single people, really it was for single people, but my friends were all so happy to see me. It was tons of fun to catch up and see them. We went to IHOP for some food. I went mostly because the people I knew were going and it would be easier to talk.
Saturday we relaxed. I did a DI run. Boy does it fell good to get rid of stuff. Though you can hardly tell. We got rid of tons of clothes and then some odds and ends. I still feel overrun with stuff, but maybe now I can make new DI piles.
Sunday was church and FHE at the parents.
Monday my friend Kristi came over for lunch. She and I have known each other since high school and it was tons of fun to catch up with her. Monday night we went to the Grand Lux Cafe inside the Venetian with a couple from our ward. He’s a manager there and we’ve been trying to go, but it wasn’t until this weekend, a week before they move to Dallas TX, that we were finally able to get together with them. The food was delicious. Jon and I then went shopping at the Las Vegas outlet malls near downtown. We found sandals for Jon. My one goal was to get Jon a pair of shoes or sandals. I was disappointed because I couldn’t find any cute black slip on’s or flip flops. I need some to go with my new shirts that are black. It’s hard when you looking for something kinda specific but you can’t find anything. I want a casual black slip on but not dressy, maybe a little sporty, but not too sporty… is that too much to ask?!?! Anyways we only went to one shop that I was able to look at shoes because of the time. I’ll have to hit the mall sometime.
It was a great weekend. I wish it didn’t have to end.
