Happy Birthday, to me!

It's my sweet sixteenth today!
Yay!

Yesterday, my brother in law posted this video on Twitter.
It's short, watch it!


My bro-in-law is the tour manager for the band Hawk Nelson. Have you heard of them? They're great!
Anyway, I've met the entire band 2 or 3 times, but I've met their guitarist, Jon, over 5 times. I love these guys, they are simply the best.

Today itself was really good.
Nothing special really happened until about 3rd block, when we ate ice cream and brownies. Yum.

After school my mom, dad, and I all went to Texas Roadhouse for my birthday dinner. (I didn't want my picture taken, but...)


Here we are. Did I mention I got contacts yesterday?!
I'm a complete new person since even a month ago!
Ears pierced, new haircut, braces off, and contacts. :)
(Off topic. Sorry.)

When I had gotten home from school I spotted a large box sitting outside.
It was flowers from the same brother-in-law I talked about earlier, and my sister. :) How sweet! I was so happy.


It's a dozen different-colored roses. They're gorgeous.

Then, my sister emailed me this video.
(Seriously, if you didn't watch the last video, at least watch this one.)

So, yes! They are taking me to the Revolve Tour in March! I am so excited. :) They are seriously the best. Hawk Nelson will be there too, so I'll get to meet them again.

My birthday this year was a total success. :)

And now, time for the very first ever...
Photo Friday!

Here are my finds for this week:






Hope everyone has a fabulous weekend!

I've got to stop listening to love songs...

Not that I would know anything about love, of course.

Well, my loyal blog friends...

It's not exactly going to work out with D.
We talked about it, and considering that we live over 20-minutes away from each other, and go to separate schools, dating probably wouldn't be the best idea.

...sigh.

But, we decided, that if in a few months, we're both still interested either, then why the heck not. We'll give dating a try.

But it's still sad.
In the meantime... we're just gonna be friends still. So... yeah...

Oh well. I'll get over it.

BECAUSE...
My sixteenth birthday is FRIDAY!

Ahhh. Have I mentioned that I absolutely heart birthdays? They're great.
I'm excited for this one. My sisterAshley keeps telling me how great my gift is; how I'm going to love it so much. Hopefully it's as good as she claims. ;)

In other news, I think I'm going to start a new series called Photo Friday. I'll post several photos that I have found throughout the week, and possibly incorporate Lauren's Fill In The Blank Friday too.
Hope it works out as great as I'm anticipating. :)

Have a fabulous rest of your Monday!

I heart birthdays.

It's my birthday February 11.


I love, love, love birthdays!
To me, they are YOUR one special day of the entire year.

Plans are still undecided on as far as what I'm going to be doing, but one thing's for sure: I know what I want. :D

A new pair of TOMS Shoes. (And hey, some cash might be nice too.)
I own two pairs - white and gray Classics. Unfortunately, the white have gotten too stained to wear, and I just got a hole in one of my gray shoes. :( That was a sad day.

I'm deciding between:
Navy Classics

and

Olive Classics.

I think I'm leaning towards the navy pair, just because I wear so much of that and gray. (One thing I love about those colors: they're so interchangeable.) Although, part of me wonders if I should get the olive pair just to switch things up a bit. But I know for sure I'd love the blue pair. And part of me wants to just wait until new pairs come out in the Spring, because right now it's pretty slim pickings as far as choices. I know I'll see something I want then. What do you think I should do?

I am so excited for my birthday! Bummed I won't be able to get my license until mid-June at the earliest, but hey. Can't focus on that, right?
I'm turning sixteen!
I hear this is like a milestone or something.

Anyway, I'm looking forward to a great weekend ahead of me. Relaxing at home for now, but heading up to the larger city in our area to go shopping tomorrow, and probably get a steak at Texas Roadhouse. (I'm not in love with steak, but if you haven't gotten one from Texas Roadhouse you haven't lived! Ahh I'm hungry already.)

Happy weekending to you all!
