Happy Birthday Craiggers!

I hope you have an awesome day!!
Oh, and I love you!!

Weekend.

How was everyone's weekend?
Mine was awesome...
Except for the fact that I may have gained 20lbs from all the really good food I ate.
(Ok not really but it feels that way.)

Let's see, what else?

I LOVE my new bike and can't wait to go for a long ride!
I also got a new helmet and bike lock to go with it.
I got Super Mario Brothers for Wii from my brother as a late B-Day present.
I haven't played it yet but I am pretty excited because it is supposed to be more like the original Mario game.
I have watched the first few episodes of the first season of MacGyver.
Also a B-Day present from my other brother.
(My famly loves me!!)
Man I love that show and I still wish that I could have married him...
I also ended up seeing Date Night twice.
Friday and Saturday night.
It is hilarious.
I will definitely be owning that one.

Ok well I am off to bed.
Busy week ahead full of:
Housesitting
Working
Running
Bike rides
and
hopefully lots of other fun things!

A few things I am excited for this weekend...

First payday!!

Birthday dinner and cheesecake with some good friends!!

Hmm... which one should I choose?

Seeing a funny movie!!

Family Birthday dinner at my favorite restaurant!!

Joining a new gym with some new friends from work!!

and last but not least...

Getting a new bike!!

I can't WAIT for this weekend to start!

Well it's official...

I'm old.

Happy Easter everyone!!

first and last days...

Today was my very FIRST day at my brand spankin' new job!! I will just tell you right now that I loved it and I think I will have a lot of fun working there.

Ok now that that is out of the way...

I am turning 26 in one week. Easter Sunday I will be one year older and I have to tell you, I am really dreading it this year. There is something about turning 26 that just really bums me out. I am well on my way to my late 20's and that just sounds so.... well, old. Ugh. I know, I know, it's really not that old, but I got to tell you, it feels ancient. I thought by this age I would be married and have a kid or two, but right now I couldn't be any further from that destination. Funny how life doesn't always turn out the way you thought it would.

So today begins the last days of being 25. *sigh*

Now I am not writing this to have anyone feel sorry for me. Heck, I don't feel sorry for myself so why should you?! I just thought maybe someone could explain to me, why a day that I normally LOVE to celebrate, I don't even look forward to this year? How can I make turning the big two-six easier on and more enjoyable for myself? (Or how I can just avoid getting older all together. *wishful thinking*)

Any suggestions are more than welcome...

P.S. I'm not going to lie, I don't think having my birthday fall on Easter and General Conference weekend really helps my situation.

Happy Birthday Ashley!

Date: March 20, 2010

Objective: To make Ashley's 26th birthday her best ever!

Plan of Action: Build a Bear at Bell Square, Dinner at the new Hard Rock Cafe in Downtown Seattle, A walk on the waterfront and around downtown, and to finish the evening, we watched some old The Office episodes!

Mission: Accomplished

HAPPY BIRTHDAY ASHLEY!!

I hope it was all you dreamed of and more!
