*My BiRthDaY*

Well, I must say that yesterday was a blast! I have not been able to hang out with all of my friends in awhile because I feel like I have been so busy with everything else. So yesterday, Molly Britt Manny Steph Pami and I all headed out to Chicago. We took the 9:17 train down there and spent the day at the Field Museum. We took so many awesome pictures that I will have a ton of memories to look back onto. Speaking of pictures, Manny and Steph gave me two photo albums yesterday with a bunch of goofy pictures that we had taken and all of our quotes/inside jokes to go with them. I love both of them so much (here I am referring to the books, and I suppose to make Manny and Steph feel better, I love them too CPACU!) I have already looked at them a bizallion times! Pam also made me a poster with sister pictures on it and I love that sooo much too! I am going to have a ton of great pictures to bring with me to Iowa! So after Chicago Pami and I went out to dinner with my mom and dad to the restuarant in South Elgin called Jurin. It is a Japanese Steak House where they cook in front of you. The food was AMAZING and our chef did a really great job entertaining us while he cooked. Then they brought out a fruit contraption and sang happy birthday. Instead of ice cream they gave me white chocolate cheesecake! YUM!!! They also took a picture of my family and I and gave me a certificate to come back next year between 7/20 and 8/20 and my dinner is free, and then they will issue me a new certificate. How cool is that?!?!? Then we went and got a cake at Maggie Moo's, came home opened presents, and then had some cake. All in all, it was a really great birthday and I want to thank everyone who made it possible (*as I take out a long piece of paper and start reading names*)..."I would like to thank my mom and dad firstly, then my family, friends....blah blah blah hahahaha
Thanks for the card too Mike...I got it today and I LOVE it! It's funny too cause we were just talking about Barney last week and I was saying how much I used to love him as a kid.

One more math test left! WOoHOo!!
