a whole year older

tomorrow is the anniversary of my birth.

22 sounds sophisticated and established, with enough young blood to be mischievous on the weekends. 21 has been good to me but i am anxious to part ways, to make room for 22 to sprawl out with reckless poise.

tomorrow is the last big milestone before the huntman comes home. all this time i did not count down the days, i counted down the milestones-- holidays, birthdays, events, and the like. one more christmas... one more general conference... one more birthday...and now, it's here! gah!  i suppose the last milestone could be the hp7 premier, but the birthday is officially the last big milestone.

i am a soul who does not believe in working on birthdays, and in eating as much delicious food as possible with the best company {most especially on the birthday}.

and so, that is the plan for the birth day:
breakfast at magelby's with {some}of my family, a wee bit of shopping, transformers 3, a new adventure {weather permitting} of disc golfing, and texas roadhouse with a few of my favorites. and what would a birthday be without cupcakes??
{whipped up with the best ingredients by my fabulous roommate, alihandra, aka "queen of baking"}
gosh i love birthdays. the presents are an added bonus, to be sure, however the best part of birthdays consists of life being paused for a day while i grow a whole year older with some of my favorites.
i can hardly wait to celebrate.
