25th Birthday

25-- weird! I still feel 21! But I guess there really isn't a big difference in birthdays in your 20s, at least thats how I feel!

We didn't have big plans this year, usually we have a party at the house but I was nervous about doing that with the baby so we decided not to make big plans. We did have plans that night for a cook out with some of my friends from YHC though! We had such a great time- grilling out, corn hole, catching up, pictures, little dance party in the basement ;) Shanice & Justin came with their two ADORABLE twin boys- miss that girl, I don't see her nearly as much as I'd like to. Alana & Nick, Tyler, Katie all came too! It was at Brittany and Zach's house and we had such an awesome time. They even got me a birthday cake!

That day Joey asked me what I wanted to do, and I just said "we're doin' it!" - I just wanted to relax on the couch with him and my sweet girl, watching movies, napping, just doing NOTHING! we've been so jam packed with plans lately I just wanted to take it easy.

Joey and Adelynn got me the best birthday gift ever! I've been wanting a new camera for SO LONG, and even more so since Adelynn was born- iPhone pictures just don't cut it. So they gave me a Nikon Coolpix! (but gave it to me early so I could use it on 4th of July!)

and I've been snappin' pictures like paparazzi ever since!

Friday night before my bday, we went up to Elektrik Dragon (Main Street in Loganville) to see Tammy & Dollie and get some quotes, and get me a new tat! Brittany and Zach came with us, and of course baby (but she was just spectating!) I LOVE Tammy & Dollie up there, mother/daughter team who give the shop such a family feel. You walk in and just instantly feel like family! You need to find them on Facebook and go check them out if you're in the area, you can find them under my 'likes'. The address is 248 Main Street Loganville, GA 30052

We chatted about Adelynn, and Dollie's little girl Lillith (she is ADORABLE, such a character) while she was runnin' around the shop and watchin' her disney movies. It was a ton of fun. And of course I got a tattoo-- I dont know why anyone who knows me would be surprised, I have 'em all over so of course I'd get one for my favorite person in the whole world!

Afterwards we went back to our house and hung out with Britt, Zach, and Katie. Us girls sat on the patio catching up on life while the boys stayed inside and played video games!

Overall it was a great weekend, very relaxed! I got lots of phone calls, texts, facebooks, etc. from everyone wishing me a happy birthday- felt very loved! and its not over! Today at work we're having a birthday lunch, tonight birthday dinner at Chilis with my family, and this Sunday at my in-laws we're celebrating mine, Courtney's, FIL's. and Peyton's birthday with dinner-- and Court, Becca, and I are going to the movies Saturday after Peyton's birthday party! So I'm definitely feeling the love :)
