Twenty-One

-The current century -A cardgame AKA blackjack -The title of atleast 4 different movies -A top restaurant in New York -The legal age to gamble, purchase alcohol, purchase a gun, rent a car, and work as a prostitute in Nevada -A new trivia game -The title of a song by the Cranberries -The title of a novel by Patrick O'Brian -A drinking game -A variation of street basketball ........and my age
Many people aren't overly thrilled when they turn the big 2-1 because it means "real" adulthood with things like marriage, full time jobs, and responsibility. Because all those things happened to me when I was 19, turning 21 wasn't so bad at all. Of course I didn't consume "different kinds" of liquids or gamble at a casino, but I did get to spend the day with my family by going to lunch & a movie with my sisters, shopping & dinner with my hubby, eating cake at the ingersolls, late night hot tubbin, and recieving lots of texts and phonecalls throughout the whole day!

I wonder what my 21st year has in store for me.....it does have a good feeling to it!

I know I was so excited to see Brianne Healy on it last year...I love it when I know someone on it! So hopefully this year is just as good as last year!

Question....where do you do your cute title bars at? I love them!

What?? I didn't even know it was your birthday. Yours and Austin's are so close together!! Well - happy birthday!! Hope you had a good 21! Pretty exciting that you can drink now, right? and the gambling too!! j/k I haven't watched so you think you can dance yet...but I do love it. And I have too many things recording on Monday that I have no more time to record Bachelorette - so I'm bugged. Can I watch it online? But this last one was 2 hours right? And yes - I'm SO sad and bugged that David Archuletta didn't win. David Cook is good - but Archie was better & so cute. This is a forever long comment. I just meant to tell you happy b-day btw it's really crappy weather down here right now anyway - you'll have to come down when it gets hot again

Happy Birthday!! You are so young! Ok. the craziest thing. Today Staci and I were at a Yoga class at Gold's and there is a big huge window and we were facing it and while we were looking that direction your sister walked right past. We both knew who she was from your blog. So freakin' funny! We both laughed because we knew that she had recently run a marathon, etc. Anyways! Happy Birthay, it was Brayden's birthday yesterday too!
