The big 2-5!

Yes, it's true. I am getting old! Ok, not really. But I did just turn 25 on Friday. It was a fun and low key birthday. Matt took the day off, we went bowling (for free, oh yeah!), did some grocery shopping, and most importantly, I got to take a nap, and enjoy a cleaning-free day. It was great!
Then for dessert, Matt made me this delicious strawberry cake. There were fresh strawberries mixed in the cake, and obviously fresh strawberries on top. (psst, I love strawberries!) It was delicious! Yummmm

But of course, my monkey children couldn't resist climbing onto the table to sneak a few bites.




The cake...

My pretty flowers Matt and the kids picked out for me.

And this is a cute one of Matt and J. J took a cute one of Matt and I, but it ended up blurry. We'll have to try again next time.


Thanks everyone for all the birthday wishes. It was such a fun day. And to finish off my blog post- it's J's rendition of 'Happy Birthday'. I laugh everytime I watch it because her facial expressions are so funny to me. Enjoy!

Yeah, I'm glad you had a good birthday. The cake looked awesome!! Way to go Matt. And I loved the picture of Matt and Jordyn. That was darling. Oh, and the video of Jordyn singing was hilarious. I love that she was eating icing at the same time she was singing!!
