My Birthday - Happy 23 to me!!!

For breakfast we had birthday cake!!! Justin did a little dance for me at the top of the stairs before I came down to see my birthday banner and the cute crowns Heather made for us. Each of them were personalized with our names on it with different colors. She also made me a HUGE birthday card! Steven got me one of those cards that plays when you open it - that made us all laugh time and time again. I don't normally like icing but the cake Steven bought for me had some purple and white icing and it wasn't too sweet - as you can tell by our faces it was tasty! In this picture of Justin it looks like he's coloring his arm in icing with his tongue - but he was actually trying to like it off. HAHA I put the icing on like lipstick and the kids got a huge kick out of it. We took like 15 photos of it. Teehee. The rest of my birthday was very fun. I had lots of gifts from Steven arrive in the mail that day, including all the Matrixes! We watched them ALL that night! Then we went swimming and the moon was very full and large. I had fun the whole day. Thanks guys.

A few days later my friend Steph (who's birthday is 4 days after mine) threw us a small pool party. It was very fun to be at a 'party' that was for me. She and I plan on doing a big one next year for our birthday. First is mainly a photo of Steph and me. Hi Steph! Lower is a picture of us (nasty me with the face of nose-picker) and a friend of ours, Holly. Hi Holly!

Thanks for reading! xo - Nae

On Friday July 24th I was invited to a "GNO". For those of you who are as behind in the times as I was GNO means Girls Night Out! :) 2 of my sisters, Tara & Bri, and 1 of my cousins, Shayla, and I got together for dinner at Lucille's in The District of Henderson. Even though a good part of our conversation was about potty training the food was pretty good - haha. AND it was Shayla's first time eating ribs! She did really well cause I don't remember food being on her face even once during dinner. I, on the other hand, went to town with my corn on the cob - I wasn't letting one kernel get past me! ;) After we ate, we waddled a little bit of it off with some window shopping.

I remember someone made a funny joke about the misters that are meant to cool off the ambiance but I don't remember exactly what the joke was or who made it. Shayla, Bri, Tara - do any of you remember? If so - PLEASE comment.

We hope to do another girl's night when Chandra and Chelsea and Aunt Laurie are able to attend! YAY!
